“WE ACT for Environmental Justice acknowledges the Biden-Harris Administration’s nominations of Judy W. Chang, David Rosner, and Lindsay S. See for the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). WE ACT recognizes the Commission’s crucial role in the U.S. energy landscape and the significant impact that the composition of FERC leadership will have on communities most affected. Prospective Commissioners must possess the requisite experience, expertise, and balanced perspectives that reflect the public interest, particularly for vulnerable groups. As the confirmation process begins, we call for a robust and thorough procedure that holds nominees accountable to environmental justice and climate justice considerations, which should be central to the Commission’s decision-making. WE ACT remains steadfast in its commitment to advancing justice, equity, transparency, and accountability at FERC.”
