Today's action from Attorney General Bonta sends a clear signal — California will not be bullied into abandoning clean, reliable power. @CalEnergy @AGRobBonta @EDF_CA

Regulators @californiapuc rightfully rejected @socalgas #Angeles Link proposal, but that does not end the need to talk about decarbonizing heavy industry. read more https://t.co/5ZMUmm82Xd @EDF_CA

A lot is happening in California's energy policy space. @Colvin and I discuss how the state can reduce reliance on fossil generation, cut pollution in vulnerable communities, and keep the grid affordable for all.

CA is adding 6,000 MW of new clean generation - now it's time to get the details right. A new blog from me and @dominicrpeters explains more. @EDF_CA

CA Regulators @californiapuc are poised to save customers $300 million per year by making a very modest cut to utility shareholder profits. Read more about how this protects the environment and the consumer at https://t.co/vA2xvwXyQ3 @EDF_CA #affordability

As DC digs in on policies fueling inflation & the climate crisis, CA is expanding how it collaborates with the West to increase access to cheaper clean energy. 🌞🔋🌎💵👨‍👩‍👧‍👧

Developing CA's offshore wind is crucial for expanding access to cheaper, cleaner power. We are proud to join labor, port, environmental justice, conservation & industry groups in honoring Senator Lena Gonzalez as the 2025 Offshore Wind Champion!

Excited to be attending the PANC 2025 Annual Seminar - hope to see you there! https://t.co/xLS9nJA9Nt

@CAgovernor We agree! By fixing and passing SB 540 this year, California will have the modern power grid needed to build a clean energy future the fastest, cheapest way possible while having new tools to prevent blackouts.

[Governor Gavin Newsom @CAgovernor]

I'm calling on the Legislature to enable the expansion of regional energy markets to lower energy costs, reduce air pollution, and avoid power outages.

This is our best shot at making electric bills more affordable and securing a clean, reliable energy future.

[Michael Colvin @colvin]

I was interviewed about @SenJoshBecker 's SB 540 in VXNews - and also other key clean energy priorities in the west. https://t.co/AKumfUd7wz

The Trump Administration is reportedly attempting to axe EPA’s ability to combat climate change & overturn key car & trucks standards, “a scorched earth campaign against our health, our safety and our planet,” per EDF President Fred Krupp. Full statement: https://t.co/lVg9ConE9z

[Michael Colvin @colvin]

Cooperation beats isolation. CA desperately needs state leaders to heed this wisdom, remove poison pill provisions in @SenJoshBecker's SB 540, & propel the state to a safer, more prosperous future through cheaper, cleaner & more reliable electricity. https://t.co/yDVbYhu31V

[EDF Texas @EDFtx]

The Texas Legislature closed their latest session with bipartisan support for several priority zero-emission truck policies, showing a strong policy foundation for the growing zero-emission transportation opportunities. ⚡️ #txlege https://t.co/l1PxHLEMoW

@_VickiePatton, General Counsel at EDF, discussed the chaotic flurry of attacks on environmental protections over the last several months — “The costs come in the form of more pollution, adverse health effects” while also “hitting our pocketbooks.” https://t.co/rP7cYYf986
