Gretchen Whitmer Signs One Of The Nation’s Most Extreme Green Energy Mandates

“These bills will help us make more clean, reliable energy right here in Michigan, creating tens of thousands of good-paying jobs, and lowering utility costs for every Michigander by an average of $145 a year,” declared the Michigan governor.

“This does nothing to correct the issues on the distribution system,” complained Michigan Senate Minority Leader Aric Nesbitt

“All this does is increases the likelihood of power outages and decreases reliability,” claimed Nesbitt.

“Currently, 50,000 acres are used for renewable energy,” he explained.

“This will mandate that over 350,000 new acres of land will have to be pushed into renewable energy,” said Nesbitt.

Republican House Floor Leader Bryan Posthumus said, “Without a doubt, these mandates will lead to higher costs and lower reliability.”

“In government, you literally get what you pay for,” Posthumus explained.

“By mandating wind and solar, only the governor has taken many other necessary and useful options off the table to score points with the coastal elites,” he continued.

Adding, “Michigan could have been the national leader in how to do renewable the right way. Instead, Whitmer chose the strong-arm approach with an eye on a 2028 presidential run. It really is truly disappointing.”

The mandate has sparked frustration among residents and criticism from both environmental activists and Republicans.
