Indian American Nikki Haley is the only Republican presidential aspirant who can defeat President Joe Biden in the November 2024 polls, a CNN poll has revealed. More than half a dozen Republican leaders, including two Indian Americans Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy -- are seeking to be the party's presidential nominee.

Protections are proposed for more than 20,000 square miles (51,800 square kilometers) of land in the reserve in the western Arctic. Some critics who said the approval of Willow flew in the face of Biden's pledges to address climate change lauded Wednesday's announcement. But they said more could be
