AI Summary

This bill, the Alaska's Right to Produce Act of 2023, aims to ratify and approve all authorizations, permits, and other approvals issued for the establishment and administration of the Coastal Plain oil and gas leasing program in Alaska. It requires the Secretary of the Interior to reissue canceled leases and conduct future lease sales for the Coastal Plain without delay. The bill also nullifies certain federal agency actions, such as a proposed rule by the Bureau of Land Management and an executive order, that sought to restrict oil and gas activities in the region. Additionally, it limits the Secretary's ability to designate new or expand existing "Special Areas" in the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska without explicit congressional authorization.
