If only we could have high hopes for you, New Jersey.
New York Post (8/10/25) opinion: "It’s clear New Jersey residents have lost confidence in their Democratic lawmakers when it comes to tax policy. Once they realize that Democrats’ bungled energy policies are to blame for their exploding utility bills as well, it could blow November’s race wide open. 'They took generation off before they brought generation on,' one energy expert told me, pointing to the state’s aggressive shutdown of coal-powered plants under Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy and the closure of the Oyster Creek nuclear power plant in 2018. The result? A shrinking energy supply, at a time when demand is exploding. Dan Lockwood, a spokesperson for PJM Interconnection, the regional grid operator, explained the problem plainly to the New Jersey Monitor. 'These higher prices are the result of a loss in electricity supply caused primarily by decarbonization policies that have led to an uptick in generator retirements,' Lockwood said."

"The United States will not accept any environmental agreement that harms the interests of the American people. The International Maritime Organization’s proposal for a “Net-Zero Framework” is a tax on Americans levied by an unaccountable UN organization.
@SecDuffy,@SecretaryWright,@howardlutnick, and I reject this proposal."
– Secretary of State Marco Rubio
