"MN's economic success has typically come through hometown companies growing big versus luring in existing ones from other places. It could use some more of that, with signs of slowing economic growth and struggles at the state's biggest employers." axios.com/local/twin-cit…

Listen to Chairman Westerman explain the reality of NEPA and how the SPEED Act can cut the red tape to benefit projects across all industries.

Go Blue and Go Nuclear Energy.

America’s energy infrastructure needs timely permitting to keep pace with demand. The SPEED Act updates the NEPA process so critical energy projects don’t get stuck navigating years of red tape and approval uncertainty.

U.S. forests offset 12% of our annual climate pollution, with the potential to do even more. But with wildfires increasing, they need some help. That's why we've worked hard to support the #FixOurForests Act this year! Here's what we've been up to: citizensclimatelobby.org/blog/policy/ou…

NEPA reviews shouldn’t take thousands of pages and years to complete. Modernized permitting can streamline environmental reviews while keeping protections strong. A predictable process = more clean, reliable and affordable American energy.

A good read for all.

It is time to lift the 30 year old MN nuclear moratorium to build support for and allow the market to fairly evaluate all clean energy options in Minnesota.

An interesting perspective on when a carbon tax becomes politically viable in the US to raise revenue. sustainableviews.com/this-former-tr…

Data centers are not really causing water problems. You shouldn't put one just anywhere. But even if they triple by 2030, they’d require just 8% of the water consumed by US golf courses, as I reported for Pirate Wires based on Andy Masley's work. Stop the AI water doomerism.

7/ Back in 2018, a key paper showed that if you just keep adding the next cheapest resource, you don't actually get to the finish line. You hit a local minimum, the "default plan." The path to the end requires thinking about the end state up front. Jesse Jesse D. Jenkins

Time to get permitting reform done in Congress. Keep talking to find common ground. A bipartisan solution is close. It is time to refresh laws passed 50 years ago to address modern needs of the 21st century.

Highly recommend reviewing this entire thread to better understand why clean firm power such as nuclear energy is needed in addition to wind and solar to keep costs affordable on the path to 100%. It is time for Minnesota to lift our nuclear moratorium.

The degree to which folks on this platform litigate their energy resource preferences by cherry-picking the grid mix in specific moments and places is a bit maddening. The power grid is a system, with various resources playing different roles at different times. Our job is to

Thank you Minnesota Chamber of Commerce

Please watch this remarkable display of integrity and honor from former GOP candidate Chris Madel. The most truth you’ll hear from anyone.

BREAKING: Music legend Bruce Springsteen just released this incredible song that will be sure to piss Trump off beyond belief. “Streets of Minneapolis”. He wrote this song about Alex Pretti and Renée Good Saturday and recorded it yesterday. Share it far and wide and play it

Get it done to power the future of Minnesota.

I hope Minnesota is listening. We need both nuclear and renewables going forward to ensure a clean, affordable and reliable grid.

The US wasted 50 years demonizing nuclear. It's our cleanest, safest, most reliable energy source. China didn't. Of 74 reactors under construction worldwide, they're building half. We need to streamline approvals, fund next-gen reactors, and go all-in on nuclear 👇
