12/24/25: New York's new energy plan

(Dec 24, 2025) Last week, the state approved a new energy plan for the next 15 years. The planning board's chair argues it balances the need for carbon-free emissions with the realities of today's energy grid. Critics say it doesn't go far enough. Also: Gov. Hochul signed a set of prison reforms into law last week to expand video footage at all 42 of the state's correctional facilities.
