Some Republicans are suddenly concerned about the environment and want to block clean energy infrastructure.
>Kolkhorst, in a statement to Stateline, called the legislation “a common-sense approach to the encroachment of wind and solar facilities being scattered across our great state with no consideration or safeguards for landowners or the environment.”

Republicans are against good things purely because Dems are in support of them. Grievance and spite politics all the way down.

“In neighboring Oklahoma, for example, hundreds of people [rallied at the state Capitol in January](https://www.news9.com/story/677d1bd899fd44c78bbbb1bc/hundreds-expected-to-rally-at-state-capitol-against-green-energy-initiatives) to urge Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt to issue an executive order halting new wind and solar projects. Like Texas, Oklahoma is [a major oil and natural gas producer](https://www.eia.gov/state/analysis.php?sid=OK#9), but it generated 45% of its total in-state electricity from renewable resources in 2023.”
Get rid of renewables. Its for marxists. (how stupid are Oklahomans, its FREE ENERGY FROM GOD)
(Seriously, it decreases reliance on Russian, Saudi, and Venezuala oil). Mind boggling how Fox News turned God’s creation into liberal woke energy.
This stubborness makes me miss the time we worshipped the Sun. Maybe the Egyptians were into something.
