New York State Sues Trump Administration Over Offshore Wind Farm HaltsNew York state is taking legal action against the Trump administration for halting construction on five offshore wind farms along the Atlantic coast. Governor Kathy Hochul joined workers whose jobs depend on these projects, many already underway.

However, Hochul dismissed this explanation as total nonsense, and environmental leaders and labor groups agree, emphasizing the importance of sustainable power. Two Long Island projects, Empire Wind and Sunrise Wind, are now suing the administration themselves, as they face potential termination and job losses. Checkout Solipillow.com
