** A Progressive Take on Permitting Reform
Wednesday, September 13 | 2:00-3:00pm ET
------------------------------------------------------------
Dear John,
The recent debt ceiling deal included a suite of “permitting reforms” advocated by Sen. Joe Manchin, but which are unlikely to eliminate the true roadblocks to the renewable energy transition.
Join us: Wednesday, September 13 at 2:00 pm ET ([link removed])
We will discuss our recent report, A Progressive Take on Permitting Reform: Principles and Policies to Unleash a Faster, More Equitable Green Transition ([link removed]) , by Johanna Bozuwa and Dustin Mulvaney, who explain the many obstacles facing the transition and contextualize various definitions of permitting reform. They provide a principle-driven policy toolkit to address these hurdles, including progressive reforms to permitting processes, as well as policy aims that go beyond the role of permitting.
As the political feasibility of federal legislation toward these aims remains uncertain, Roosevelt invites the authors, along with Sonal Jessel and Howard Crystal, to discuss how the policies outlined in the brief can move forward through executive action and at the state level.
Join us for a conversation that explores the real obstacles to an efficient green energy transition and what we can do in the near term to remove them through state and executive action.
