And that’s a wrap. Got in calling out the @NYSDEC on national television before midnight.
I’d call that a pretty productive day!
I met incredible people today from all over the country. Ranchers from Utah, Arizona, Montana, and Washington. People I would be proud to call friends.
We were able to exchange experiences and detect patterns in land grabs that wouldn’t have been possible without the @USDA and @SecRollins giving us the opportunity to speak today.
I am honored to represent New York State in that discussion.
@NYCMayor@Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani tell everyone u want lithium battery storage systems in our communities! We don't want to be subjected to the next class action lawsuit like the residents of Moss Landing #nobessbombs#banbess@NYCMayor@GovKathyHochul
Trump and Hochul’s unlikely alliance comes to an end
Their administrations traded the Constitution Pipeline for the EMPIRE and SUNRISE industrial wind energy projects. There was massive opposition to the deal from astroturf groups like the League of Conservation Voters and Sierra Club. The decision by Hochul to back out of the deal comes as no surprise given the fact she is running for reelection this year.
It’s time now for @POTUS to slam the door on the EMPIRE and SUNRISE wind projects. We know the President doesn’t do bad deals. And this industrial development which threatens marine habitat and fisheries is an especially bad deal. We urge the President, @epaleezeldin, @SecretaryBurgum@PeteHegseth to step in and immediately stop offshore wind construction before it’s too late.
The president said the New York governor had broken her word to help approve a controversial pipeline through the state, a charge she’s repeatedly denied.

.@epaleezeldin on the Constitution Pipeline: "We believe that New York should reverse its ban on the extraction of natural gas."
@POTUS: "We're getting held up by the Governor of New York... and Connecticut is suffering and all of New England is suffering—and Upstate New York is really suffering."
@saveLBIorg This... yes, storms destroying solar does occur on occasion.
The world's largest floating solar farm is destroyed by bad weather. Toxic chemicals leach into the sea. Stupid is as stupid does.

What @GovKathyHochul has done (and is trying to do) to Upstate NY farmers will not be allowed to move forward without a knock down, drag out fight. Things are in motion to put up a serious defense for our neighbors to the North. Thanks to @alex_fasulo for making me aware!
They want to turn 1,800 acres (total project footprint) of gorgeous, designated grassland habitat and farmland into a 100MW solar complex in Fort Edward, NY.
Our state’s own @NYSDEC is looking the other way, allowing the Office of Renewable Energy Siting to sell our land to foreign corporations out of Canada.
NO state subsidies for unreliable, costly foreign-dependent power that threatens our coast & security!
