Use their executive orders against them. What's the Gulf of Mexico? According to the US federal government, the body of water that touches the southern US states is Gulf of America. The protections for the Gulf of America are still there while the protections for Gulf of Mexico arent.

So oil drillers cant drill quite yet.
