Trump signed away our federal lands to the oil, gas, and coal industries.

The claim that Trump "signed away our federal lands to the oil, gas, and coal industries" is a strong characterization but has a basis in fact. Multiple sources indicate that under Trump's administration, there were significant policy shifts favoring fossil fuel extraction on federal lands. For example, the 2025 tax reconciliation bill signed by Trump expanded leasing opportunities and tax credits for oil and gas companies while cutting environmental regulations.

Additionally, the so-called "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" represented a sweeping overhaul of U.S. Energy policy that included provisions beneficial to fossil fuel industries. Reports also highlight that Trump's policies reduced environmental protections on federal lands, facilitating increased extractive industry activity. While Trump did not literally "sign away" federal lands in the sense of transferring ownership outright to private companies, his administration's deregulatory approach and legislative actions effectively opened more federal lands to fossil fuel development and provided financial incentives to those industries.

Therefore, the claim is mostly true in the sense that Trump's actions significantly favored fossil fuel interests on federal lands, though it is somewhat hyperbolic to say he "signed away" the lands themselves.
