Zeldin Pushes Fracking Revival in NY

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin hit the road across New York State, rallying for fracking’s return and the Constitution Pipeline’s revival, touting economic revival and energy independence. A lifelong New Yorker, he argues natural gas is vital to the state’s energy mix and that current climate rules are stifling growth—especially in upstate communities. But environmental activists are pushing back fiercely, warning of public health dangers like childhood leukemia, and demanding he leave. Meanwhile, the pipeline’s fate hangs in the balance amid political tension: Trump accuses Hochul of reneging on a deal to approve it, while she’s firmly opposed. Zeldin’s push echoes his past support for deregulation under Trump, all in pursuit of what he calls the “Great American Comeback.” Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
