Trump’s Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum's corruption and ignorance is appalling. Burgum recently tried to kill off wind energy off the coast in Carolina. That offshore wind lease would have created over 37,000 jobs during development and construction, provided billions in wages, and 44.9 billion in capital investment. During a House Natural Resources Committee hearing, he ignorantly argued thar solar projects produce "zero electricity" after sunset, but that problem has been solved by utility scale batteries. California’s batteries recently discharged 12,000 megawatts of power; that’s the equivalent of 12 nuclear power plants firing at once. Burgum prefers dirty polluting energy to poison the air our children breathe. Our children deserve better.
Vote this ignorant, corrupt Trump administration and its lackeys out of government in November. Vote for Jonathon Hill and Clara Pratte for Arizona Corporation Commission in the August primary and then again in the November general election
