The Richmond Gas Works, a municipal owned public service utility, is targeted for closure. Council sees its continued operation as “an obstacle.” The city's customers may soon need to run their lives and businesses without natural gas. #RVA @RTDNEWS @NBC12 @CBS6 @TerryMcAuliffe
Councilwoman Katherine Jordan put that before council & it passed. Eliminating Nat Gas. So what do all the businesses & people do? There's no substitute except further dependence on @DominionEnergy NatGas is a needed bridge to future Net Zero Carbon, NOT 100% C-Free @RTDNEWS
There are no simple fixes 4 our Planet. It will take "All of the Above" approach using cleanest tech at a point in time, while continuously improving technologies. I hate fracking & frack water needs recycling, but that's hard too. H2 intrigues, ZERO C in process - can't pump.
Hydroelectric power IS zero Carbon. So is nuclear. So is H2, just emerging commercially. All must selectively be part of mix. Europe Energy crisis is part Putin, more colder winter/spring & no wind summer. There's no simple fix. It will take continuous effort. #RVA @vademocrats

This is what you get when politicians get on an ideological band wagon based on faulty grasp of reality, make decisions on politics, NOT #facts and @reason @RTDOpinions Richmond runs out on residents (what else is new?) #rvacouncil to cut off #RVA 's gas! @CBS6 @NBC12 @myVPM
@VaHouse @VaSenate who voted for Virginia Clean Economy Act & similar bills in 2020 and 2021 should further explain if they understood this to be the ultimate goal. When you talk about an economy that is 100 percent carbon free,that means no natural gas. Period. @GlennYoungkin
This is what100% carbon free means. #rvacouncil will cut off your gas. We will have to do: retrofit to all electric & pay @DominionEnergy even more than the $1.5Billion we already overpaid. @vademocrats #RVA

@RichAndersonRPV @JohnMcGuire4VA A female friend-small biz owner, told me that coming this year, to small biz everywhere, LLCs, S Corps, Sole Props - the requirement for ALL to register w FEDs, not just states, local. Job killer. Want the tax. @WBJonline @rvabizsense @VAChamber @CNBC @NoVaTechCouncil @WSJ #RVA
@RichAndersonRPV @JohnMcGuire4VA @WBJonline @rvabizsense @VAChamber @CNBC @NoVaTechCouncil @WSJ Talked to friend, who’s a lawyer, & that Obama reg requirement goes in effect ‘22 mandates ALL small biz, independent contractors, to register under FINRA a $10 K fine if they don’t, & BigBrother will be able to watch your financial transactions, supposedly anti money laundering
@RichAndersonRPV @JohnMcGuire4VA @WBJonline @rvabizsense @VAChamber @CNBC @NoVaTechCouncil @WSJ They’re NOT going after the 1% these are middle class working people & they’ll be under scrutiny to extract blood from these working guys &gals turnips. That’s why they want all the extra IRS funds & staff, to harass the middle class for more taxes to pay for Dem profligacy. #RVA

@TerryMcAuliffe Just because @GlennYoungkin THINKS! & Dems don't does not mean he is wrong. Foo brain Dems have Wild Eyed fantasies. At least years for long term goals were close to UN Panel report. 2045-2050.
Thoughtless Dem ideas too rapidly & carelessly put into law without thorough analysis of broader impacts has almost destroyed Virginia's History Tourism industry, formerly ~$2 BILLION annually. You can't toss a $25 million bone to make that up.
There are some specific actions a Governor can take. Just getting rid of coal plants in 5 years isn't an action that protects Va. Thoughtful actions to protect coastal areas from flooding could help, as the Dutch have done. Focus on large cities, buildings to achieve gains faster

@CandaceBurnsTV #lies from McAuliffe. Did NOT create 200K jobs. It was UNDER 100K check Bureau of Labor Statistics 2013-2017 or 2014-2018
He transferred BILLIONS $ from VCU to UVA, GMU to please his donors. I’ll give you data. increase in jobs 2017-2018 I hate to say, was under—t
That study was totally produced by VEA on impact on Ed and a far left pro McA group. NO ECONOMIC think tank has said that Youngkin would hurt economy. McAuliffe 21 did NOT get ANY Law enforcement support THIS YEAR. There was also the Va Electoral Board Massacre in Jan- Feb 21
Va was No 1 for biz twice under McDonnell & under Northam, but under McAuliffe Va was 7,8, 11-12 but NOT close to 1 or 2 - you can check @CandaceBurnsTV Lies abt jobs created & the debt he inherited fact checked 3 times. My take Youngkin isn’t extreme, attends progressive church

The reason @JasonMyares SAYS that is because that is the defacto reality about this parole board and even worse- he dictates to the @VaOSIG what can be said and released. I know @vpm lost its leadership w newbies on hand but you must be utterly ignorant of the realities. 1/
@politico the point @JasonMiyaresVA is making is that it is NOT in Va constitution but the REALITY is law enforcement by diktat, what to prosecute as well, this shocking corruption & abuse of power. THAT's precisely the point! Neither media outlet has a clue about Va reality.
You split legal hairs @politico I know you've had pressure to write this tripe. The issue is that the redactions were on the "advice" of AG herring's office. Forget this? @vpm Parole board broke laws, its own regs! Where's the outrage? @nbcwashington apnews.com/article/richmo…
