Blumenthal Statement on Cancellation of Revolution Wind Project

[Hartford, CT] –U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) today released the following statement on the Trump Administration’s cancellation of the Revolution Wind project.

“As Connecticut families’ electric bills skyrocket, the Trump Administration is canceling critical clean energy projects that would lower utility bills and have created good paying union jobs for our state’s workforce. This arbitrary decision defies all logic and reason— Revolution Wind’s project was already well underway and employed hundreds of skilled tradesmen and women. This is a major setback for a critical project in Connecticut, and I will fight it,” Blumenthal said.
