Mike Doyle: “This draft legislation represents a step forward by my colleagues. That being said, the bill still falls short.”

I am also encouraged by FERC's efforts to finally establish an Office of Public Participation, as well as efforts to prepare for and combat cyber attacks on our energy infrastructure.

I am proud that today we will be considering the Martha Wright Prison Phone Justice Act.

I want to commend my colleague, Congresswoman Fletcher, for her work in developing legislation that embodies this principle.

As we continue to decarbonize the electric grid, I hope FERC will continue to be proactive and flexible in its approach to building out a grid with more distributed resources and in recognizing the benefits of innovative technologies.
