Quiver AI Summary
Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Paul Tonko, along with several New York Democratic colleagues, have expressed support for the New York Power Authority’s plan to develop 7 gigawatts of renewable energy by 2030. They argue this initiative aligns with state climate goals and could significantly lower electricity costs while creating jobs.
The lawmakers’ letter highlights that the proposed energy development would double previous targets, stating, “NYPA is taking bold steps forward as the federal government… steps backward.” They also criticize actions by the Trump Administration that could jeopardize renewable energy initiatives.
Signatories to the letter include Representatives Yvette Clarke, Daniel Goldman, Grace Meng, Jerrold Nadler, and Nydia Velázquez. The correspondence references the risk posed by Republican-backed legislation, which could reportedly lead to significant increases in New York energy bills.
