Quiver AI Summary
Congresswoman Nydia M. Velázquez (D-NY) submitted a comment letter addressing concerns from her constituents and environmental advocates regarding the proposed revival of the Northeast Supply Enhancement (NESE) Project, which aims to expand the Transco natural gas pipeline. She argues this expansion could pose risks to marine ecosystems and contradict state climate goals.

It has previously faced rejection from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, citing potential contamination risks and negative impacts on marine life and public health.
Velázquez emphasized the necessity for New York to prioritize environmental protection and public health while aligning with its climate commitments, urging against fossil fuel dependency in favor of clean energy investments.
