The New York HEAT Act might not make the final budget.

The bill reduces the state’s reliance on natural gas and cuts ratepayer costs by eliminating certain rules. It was in both legislative chambers’ one-house budgets, but last-minute scrambling could remove it.

New York League of Conservation Voters Policy Director Patrick McClellan said, aside from people’s preference for natural gas, other challenges have made the bill hard to pass.

“I think that there has also been some irresponsible fear-mongering against this bill from some people who oppose it,” said McClellan, “basically telling people this means that their natural gas service is going to be taken away from them tomorrow, or it’s going to happen without warning, and that’s just not the case.”

“...aside from people’s preference for natural gas...”


Really, why should legislators care about the people’s preferences? The people should shut up and do as they’re told. /s

The smart meters gives consumers a choice....but we all know that will be taken away...unless the agreement says “until the end of Time”. And even then...they will declare some kind of emergency...and your air will go off at 85 degrees...and your heat won’t come on until room temp reaches 65 degrees.

I wonder if McLellan also always regular vomits when he is not feeling well, or if he projects that as well
