Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland and Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo shared the news about the 800-megawatt Vineyard Wind Project in a press conference, standing alongside the labor leaders whose unions will ensure the project is properly built and maintained. Haaland said in a statement the deal signifies progress toward a future with clean energy.
“The approval of this project is an important step toward advancing the administration’s goals to create good-paying union jobs while combating climate change and powering our nation,” said Haaland.

Published February 19, 2021 10:01am Three United States senators have called for Senator Leila de Lima s full exoneration from the drug charges filed against her after a Muntinlupa City court junked one of her three cases. In a joint statement posted on Twitter, Senators Edward Markey, Dick Durbin and Patrick Leahy reiterated that De Lima has been unjustly detained on politically-motivated charges. While we are pleased that one of the three illegitimate charges against Senator De Lima has been dropped, it is clearly not enough, the US senators said. The Muntinlupa Regional Court earlier this week dismissed the drug case against De Lima and a certain Jose Adrian Dera by granting her demurrer to evidence a pleading seeking the dismissal of the case due to weak prosecution evidence.
