“Gentlemen, we have run out of money; now we have to think.”
Lansing Democrats and their allies in the environmental lobby held a press conference to promote their half-baked energy package. Their legislation as written would mandate Michigan derive 100% of its energy generation from renewable sources by 2035, banning natural gas, propane, biomass, landfill gas, and other commonsense low to no carbon sources. This package will harm not only rural communities like mine which rely heavily on propane to heat our homes in the winter, but put Michigan’s entire energy future at risk.
