Rolling back NY's Climate Law will do nothing to reduce costs, because it isn't the cause of rising costs. The oil and gas status quo created the affordability crisis, and cheap, quickly-deployable renewables, storage, and efficiency will get us out of it. spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/central-...

And guess what? The Governor is manufacturing a crisis while real NYers suffer from higher and higher bills due to GAS. The legislature needs to focus on reducing energy bills, not the Guv’s red herring.

$15M in CEO compensation is something out of White Lotus. Exorbitant, indeed. But pushing on the PSC hasn't solved the problem. We have a solution to make utilities affordable—it's called NY HEAT. If we're serious about keeping costs low, we should pass it in the budget.
