I would like to add one more area of focus to today's conversation and something that is particularly important to me: RTO governance and transparency into the stakeholder process in our wholesale markets.
Joseph Kennedy III
The Public Record
Joseph P. Kennedy III is a Democratic politician from Massachusetts who served as a U.S. Representative for the 4th congressional district from 2013 to 2021. He is a member of the prominent Kennedy political family, being the grandson of Robert F. Kennedy and the great-nephew of President John F. Kennedy. During his time in Congress, Kennedy focused on issues such as healthcare, education, and economic opportunity, advocating for policies that aimed to support working families and address income inequality. He is known for his efforts to promote renewable energy and combat climate change.
According to the EPA's website, quote, "the mission of the EPA is to protect human health and the environment," end quote.
Mercury can be highly toxic to infants, children, and adults, including severe consequences to heart, kidney, and immune system functions.
Yet despite that success, EPA is now proposing to reverse its own findings and perhaps the entire MATS regulatory structure.
Nearly every day, families and communities are at greater risk of losing access to clean air and clean water at the expense of political convenience.
this dangerous and misleading proposal to undermine mercury and toxic air protections is a new low and unnecessarily creates risks to both public health and the environment.
Since 2012, the EPA has written a success story for public health and the environment through its implementation of mercury and toxic air standards, MATS.
Over the past 2 1A½ years, the Trump administration has upheld its promise time and again to roll back critical environmental protections.
Is it really appropriate to continue to keep charging the taxpayer for those research risks on the back of an old product?
So I appreciate that. Denmark, as it turns out, was rated by Avik Roy as one of the countries that was free and a competitive market for drugs, not a country that engages in price controls.
