Sure, I’d rather be in MA than a lot of other places. But local govs there are largely preempted from a whole bunch of things, including building electrification, and part of this is the statewide nature of energy distribution there. There’s building code preemption too, but this is an obstacle.

How might DPU exercise its preemptive scope benevolently to allow local govs to pilot more ambitious clean energy measures?

He & other Rs also say they think the freeze will be short-lived so there's a little cognitive dissonance happening here.

A longer-term temporary restraining order (TRO) requires plaintiffs to show (1) substantial likelihood of success on the merits; (2) that it would suffer irreparable injury if not granted the TRO; (3) TRO would not cause substantial injury to OMB et al; and (4) a TRO would be in the public interest.

I have a checklist for trip-packing anxiety. Does anyone have an end-of-funding checklist they can share?

Please keep doing them! If your payments are denied, you have contractual claims.
