The Other Side of The Power Bill

by Jimmy Vielkind, Capitol bureau in Energy

Legislation to allow on-bill financing and renew a power plant siting law for New York passed last night — with some dissent.

Assemblywoman Addie Russell, a North Country Democrat (who, ironically, sits next to bill sponsor and Energy Committee chair Kevin Cahill, D-Kingston) was one of 13 members who voted against it. (It passed 117-13 in the Assembly, and 59-3 in the Senate).

The three senators who voted no are Patricia Ritchie, Joe Griffo and Mike Ranzenhofer.
