RGGI
 

RGGI, means one thing, less reliable baseload power plants. Electricity is vital to our nation. It is a matter of life and death. Literally, let’s not forget the official death toll from TX. Being out of electricity for 5 days cost the lives of 247 people. 

China and India are building more coal based power plants than the total of the U.S. Closing our plants will not lessen climate change.
