The power plant rules were roundly criticized by politicians and industry officials in North Dakota, home to several coal-fired power plants. The Lignite Energy Council trade group called it "a reckless endeavor," bismarcktribune.com/news/state-reg…
In 2022, EPA ranked North Dakota #2 in overall air quality in the entire country. Read more: kxnet.com/news/top-stori…
⚠️ The @EPA finalized four impractical & discriminatory power generation rules, jeopardizing the US power grid. The intended goal is obvious: to regulate ND’s coal industry out of existence at the expense of American consumers & reliable power generation. cramer.senate.gov/news/press-rel…

Visited with @LigniteCouncil board today about the exciting North Dakota Clean Sustainable Energy Authority projects — running toward coal, oil and biofuels, not away from them, with our administration’s focus on innovation over regulation.

The consequences of global energy shortages aren’t as simple as just paying a little bit more. If only it were that simple. Expensive and scarce energy is lethal, especially in the wintertime — as the United Kingdom is unfortunately learning firsthand. hubs.la/H0ZNxWB0

Thank you, @LigniteCouncil, for the invitation to speak at your fall meeting on lignite’s important role in keeping our grid stable as part of ND’s all-of-the-above energy approach. And congratulations to @BrentSanfordND for being recognized with the Lignite Public Service Award!

We support AG Wayne Stenehjem’s legal challenge to a federal ban on new oil and natural gas leasing on public lands. Rather than working with states on forward-looking innovation, this unlawful ban is top-down regulation that threatens to drive up the price at the pump. 1/

Now that the wind industry is commercially-viable, the continued extension of the wind production tax credit only distorts energy markets away from critically-needed baseload power, like coal. Helped intro legislation this week to phase out this tax credit.bit.ly/3aN9B8y
