"This isn’t about energy independence. It’s a giveaway to the dirty coal industry, making it easier to discharge toxic wastewater into our rivers, lakes, and streams."

EPA Seeks to Prolong Harmful Coal Plant Wastewater Pollution
Under the guise of “unleashing American energy dominance,” the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to extend compliance deadlines for coal plant wastewater pollution limits, which will allow the continued discharge of harmful pollution into our waterways.

"In 2022, Michigan’s largest utility, DTE, donated to 138 of Michigan’s 148 legislators...

...these donations give politicians an incentive to kill legislation utilities don’t like, including some that would help renewables take off in Michigan."

www.wmuk.org/wmuk-news/20...
Advocates hope banning many utility donations will help clean energy legislation in Michigan
Renewable-energy advocates say utilities have too much influence over the officials that regulate them, and that a proposed ballot measure could help change that.
