WIND ENERGYSOLAR ENERGY
The National Legal and Policy Center is urging Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin to withdraw his support for the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project, citing national security concerns and contradictions to his taxation and deregulation policies. The Interior Department recently paused the project for 90 days, and NLPC, along with other organizations, is involved in a lawsuit to halt it under the Endangered Species Act due to potential threats to the North Atlantic right whale. As a Dominion Energy shareholder, NLPC is also advocating against the company's investments in renewable energy.
