American Shores Protection Act of 2025

This bill prohibits new oil and gas exploration, development, and production in specific offshore areas along Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina coasts. It bans leasing for these activities from enactment until June 30, 2032, covering the Eastern Gulf of Mexico (per the 2006 Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act), the South Atlantic Planning Area, and the Straits of Florida Planning Area. Existing leases issued before the bill's enactment remain unaffected. The bill directly affects oil and gas companies seeking permits in these designated coastal zones.
