For the first time ever, wind and solar energy are covering more than 100% of demand in mainland Spain. The excess is being stored and exported.

Today in Augusta, I joined MOFGA and Maine farmers to deliver a clear message to the Trump Administration: Support farmers, NOT billionaires. Trump’s USDA is ripping up contracts, cutting off funding, and leaving our rural communities high and dry. (1/2)
