Bush continues GOP push for offshore oil drilling

"American drivers are counting on Congress to lift the ban, and so are American workers," President Bush said after meeting with his Cabinet at the White House.

Most Americans favor an increase in offshore oil drilling, but the public is split over whether it would result in lower gas prices in the next year, according to a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll conducted this week.

More than two-thirds of Americans say they favor increasing drilling efforts off America's coasts, while only 30 percent disapprove of such action. Meanwhile, 51 percent think increased drilling offshore would reduce gas prices, while 49 percent believe it wouldn't.
