Interesting thoughts on how the White House's EO on independent agencies might impact FERC in the replies here:

FERC meeting today! Nothing has been said explicitly about Phillips' tenure possibly ending, but Phillips thanked critical members of his staff, led a round of applause for his staff and FERC staff, and thanked his wife for her support throughout his chairmanship.

I'm sure everyone will dig into the details here soon. But at a high level, this gives the rule significantly stronger backing: Buy-in from a bipartisan group of 4 commissioners and likely state regulators. Certainly cools down the politics.

It sounds like there's officially an Order 1920-A! Commissioner See is not participating on the advice of ethics counsel. Presentation beginning shortly here: www.ferc.gov/news-events/...

Going to try something I haven't done in forever on ~that other platform~ -- post about FERC ! The power regulator released its agenda for next week's monthly meeting today. #1 on the docket: Challenges to its sweeping transmission rule (O 1920). Thread on context and what to watch for:
