Sure they can do something about it, Why US Exporting 65% of
Alaska Oil to countries that had no oil refineries?

Because the oil in Alaska cannot be refined to US standards, per the EPA.


Bull***
Alaskan oil was intended to be exported mainly to Japan from the
beginning.
It's damn difficult to build a refinery in an environment that's
mostly frozen year round. Then there would be an added cost just to
move it to the lower 48.
