Developers from coal to solar are united in facing the same bureaucratic roadblocks, with even Democrats now recognizing how these hurdles hurt renewable projects.

Key proposals include a “shot clock” for reviews and clearer rules on post-approval lawsuits, aiming to turn this into the first major legislative win in years.
