I hope every Democratic member of the House and Senate reads this and factors it into whatever funding bill gets agreed to. We have seen what ICE can do to U.S. Citizens in the streets, imagine what they will do at the polls. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

One thing to add to Carini’s column is that in the offshore litigation CT and RI AGs alleged in court filings hundreds of millions in consumer savings, with sworn affidavits. ecori.org/dont-blame-r...

Boston has a city-run electricity program that has cheaper rates than Eversource and uses more renewable energy. Sign up for Boston Community Choice Electricity at boston.gov/bcce.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

A federal judge says Vineyard Wind, a large and nearly complete offshore wind project near Massachusetts, can resume construction. The project is 95% complete and already sending power to the New England grid @wbur.org www.wbur.org/news/2026/01...

16 years ago today, SCOTUS sided with big corporations over the American people in their infamous Citizens United ruling. That decision paved the way for unchecked & secret money in our politics & helped billionaires & special interests buy more elections. We must reverse it.

Sad but spot on 👇

"Sue AnderBois said that volatility in prices of natural gas, the primary fuel for power generation in New England, and spending on pipeline infrastructure are the real drivers of energy rate increases in the region." 1/2 www.providencejournal.com/story/news/p...

The Grid and the Scam.

We cannot be more clear. Leave us the fuck alone.

Residents and small businesses can save money on their energy bills by enrolling in Boston Community Choice Electricity’s Basic or Standard rates. Both rates are lower than current and upcoming Eversource rates and use renewable energy. Enroll at boston.gov/bcce.

My statement on Trump's latest attack on Rhode Island offshore wind.

Statement from Equinor re: the suspension notice for Empire Wind: "The project is more than 60% complete, with trenching, cable-laying and cable pulling ongoing on the US outer continental shelf." www.equinor.com/news/2025122... 🔌💡

Surging gas prices worsen affordability crisis for Americans Record US LNG exports are colliding with a cold snap as rising energy costs create political problem for Trump www.ft.com/content/2152...

My read is that methane is not cheap 👇

Is that America first?

I endorse this message.

All of the times I’ve wondered what Putin had on Trump, and now we find out Jeffrey Epstein was talking to Putin’s ambassador about Trump.

Heat pumps are expensive. What if billionaires bought them for everyone? It would cost more than $1 trillion, but the savings from lower bills and cleaner air would be just as high. grist.org/energy/heat-... #HeatPumps #Energy #Taxes

Bingo! We are hearing that in lot other states too with binding GHG commitments made well before Biden & IRA.

One of the key barriers to electrification is the ratio of electricity to gas prices. The tax rate on electricity used in industry is much higher in most European countries than the tax rate on fossil gas. There are many options for reform: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @ember-energy.org

Almost like we founded the entire country on opposing this exact sentence.

This resonates with me.

R.I. utility regulators approve 16% hike in winter electric rates starting Oct. 1 rhodeislandcurrent.com/2025/09/26/r...

Pssst…. @unitil.bsky.social is now enrolling electricity customers for MA’s new Residential Heat Pump Rate. unitil.com/ma-heat-pump...

New York's South Fork Wind, America's first large offshore wind project, is generating electricity as at the same rate as New York's natural gas generators. How's that for reliable power? (via @justingerdes.bsky.social) www.quittingcarbonmedia.com/trump-claims...

We’re joining with events across the nation to celebrate the power of solar and wind energy! Sun Day Rhode Island is a family-friendly community event that will highlight the power of the sun and wind through art, play, and hands-on learning. Visit actionnetwork.org/events/sun-d... to RSVP! #sunday

More than 15,000 prospective and current jobs tied to wind projects in New England are under threat from the potential shutdowns, according to a Bloomberg analysis

Here’s an idea. The west has held about $300 billion in Russian assets. They should release 2 billion a day to Ukraine until Russia stops the war, or they disperse it all. Then Russia will have to accept the war has an additional real cost per day

Funny how we never hear #NewEngland anti- #offshorewind groups pushing for any action to prevent whales from being entangled in fishing gear like our friends at @biologicaldiversity.org are. Maybe it isn't really about the whales? act.biologicaldiversity.org/7wak2LOEkUqK...

I spent some time with @billmckibben.bsky.social talking about solar energy and walked away with a feeling that I almost had forgotten about: hope. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/09/16/m...

While the third-party supplier industry claims its issues are limited to small "bad apples", the DPU is accusing one of the largest suppliers in the Commonwealth of multiple different kinds of fraud. #energy #masspoli

“We’re buying 30 years of power at a fixed price, and it’s a good price,” he said. ​“The states have decided they want to buy this stuff.” By blocking completion of Revolution Wind, the Trump administration is ​“forcing fossil fuels down our throats” Nicely said www.canarymedia.com/articles/off...

“These were permitted rather quickly,” Mr. Wright said. “If you do something fast and quickly.. bad things happen.” But 'Vineyard Wind..applied for permits in 2017 and was approved in 2021. Revolution Wind went through nine years of federal and state reviews..' www.nytimes.com/2025/09/05/c...

If you live in #RhodeIsland and follow @providencejournal.bsky.social, you might not know that there are pro-wind fisherman. But there are. National & regional media are picking up the slack here for our state's "paper of record." #offshorewind www.canarymedia.com/articles/off...

What? The oil and gas industry couldn’t stop it?

Power prices are shaping up as a midterms flashpoint. Here are what's pushing bills higher (and what isn't) @opinion.bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

first interview I did as a baby journo was w/RFK Jr. about why he opposed Cape Wind (it was because it messed with the views from his family's compound, but he mumbled something about local fishermen). Brown University has done excellent research on this www.climatedevlab.brown.edu/post/against...

Turbine blades ready to be installed stopped; Rhode Island union work stopped; fossil fuel ocean pollution boosted.

📢 New report drop: Heat Pump Rates in Massachusetts Heat pumps could cut bills for thousands of MA households—but only if the state gets the rates right. Right now, many heat pump users are being *overcharged* for their share of the grid. 1/🧵 🔗 www.switch.box/mahprates #energysky #climatesky
