AG Tong formally notified the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts of the stop work order halting the Revolution Wind project and the severe harm to Connecticut ratepayers, grid reliability, and jobs caused by stopping this fully-permitted and nearly complete project. The notice was filed in the ongoing challenge to the Trump Administration’s unlawful wind executive order. On September 4, the court will hear a motion for summary judgment where Attorney General Tong and 18 other attorneys general have sought to block Trump’s unlawful effort to freeze development of wind energy.

“We’ve got billions of dollars in investment and a project on the finish line to deliver affordable, American-made, renewable energy right off the coast of Connecticut. There are more than 1,000 jobs on the line. We’re notifying the court now that Trump’s irrational stop to Revolution Wind will jack up energy bills, hurt workers, and weaken our grid,” - AG Tong.
