Mike Doyle: “The FCC has continued to expand its track record of anti-consumer, anti-small business, anti-innovation policies.”

Losing over 95,000 Americans to overdoses in 2020 is an unacceptable number. And we need to work fast to reverse this deadly trend.

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.

It is our responsibility on the subcommittee to highlight, as we have in so many hearings, the issues important to the people we represent.

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.
