Republican Rep. Jeff Van Drew says he spoke with Trump by phone about a month ago and urged him to act on his campaign promise.

Van Drew said the draft is written to halt offshore wind development from Rhode Island to Virginia for six months so the incoming interior secretary could review how leases and permits were issued.

He expects Trump to issue an offshore wind executive order within the first quarter of the year , possibly as early as his first day on the job.
