Casten, McClellan, and Durbin introduce legislation to require FERC to assess natural gas pipeline impacts on climate and communities.
Quiver AI Summary
Legislators introduce new bill: U.S. Representatives Sean Casten and Jennifer McClellan, along with Senator Dick Durbin, have introduced the FERC Greenhouse Gas and Environmental Justice Policy Act of 2025. The legislation mandates the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to assess the impacts of natural gas pipelines on climate change and Environmental Justice communities during the approval process.
Proponents emphasize fairness and safety: "It's time we put the national interest first," stated Rep. Casten, highlighting the need for careful consideration of energy project impacts on climate and vulnerable communities. The bill aims to ensure that environmental and health factors are prioritized in energy infrastructure decisions.
Prior proposals terminated: Previous efforts to establish a policy regarding these assessments were halted earlier in the year. The new legislation seeks to codify and strengthen such measures, providing clearer criteria for evaluating the social and environmental repercussions of proposed natural gas pipelines.
