Well, I would think that they would anticipate not having the same do-nothing Congress we have now, forever.

This is the time to plan, not to panic.

This transition in our energy sector is important for the climate and for public health.

While moving away from the oldest, dirtiest generation is reducing our carbon pollution, many other coal-fired power plants are going to be installing modern pollution controls to reduce their toxic emissions.

As utilities move from coal-fired generation to cheaper, cleaner, and more flexible sources of power, we hear complaints about the retirements of coal-fired plants.

The primary reason utilities are increasing their natural gas generation is the reduced cost of natural gas.

We doubled our capacity to generate renewable electricity from wind and solar in just 4 years.

We can't tell the American people buyer beware when potentially life-and-death care decisions are at stake.

Mobile medical applications hold incredible promise for patients and health care providers.
