The irony of a gas tax suspension is that the higher prices go the less of an impact it has.

For a sedan at national avg prices, filling up your car costs $18-$25 more than it did before the war. A federal gas tax holiday saves you up $2 per fillup.

“Grid enhancing technologies… are primed for widespread adoption.”

Interest in grid-enhancing technologies is rising nationwide, and our work was highlighted in @UtilityDive this morning. Read the full Utility Dive piece for how these technologies could reshape future transmission projects in Pennsylvania.

“The one thing that affects everything is NEPA. Whether its electric transmission, pipelines, roads, bridges, [or airports] everything gets impacted by NEPA," @RepWesterman.

“I’m hopeful that people are tired of what we’ve heard many times: [...] ‘Let’s hold out for a better political environment’. Punting this issue doesn’t make sense. Now feels like a pretty good time to make a move on it.” @RepGolden.

The bipartisan SPEED Act signaled real momentum in Congress for permitting reform, with Reps. Westerman and Golden leading the charge in the U.S. House to make reform happen.

EPA’s expansion of Class VI state primacy could accelerate U.S. carbon storage. States with primacy can approve permits in under a year, a process that typically takes more than two years at the federal level.

That means faster climate progress and more investment certainty.
