Looks Like FERC’s Glick is History – Manchin Won’t Hold Hearing

|
Richard Glick - likely gone from FERC after Dec. 31
It looks like Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Chairman Richard "Dick" Glick is about to be out of a job. Glick, a Democrat and former wind lobbyist who is an extreme anti-pipeline radical, was first appointed to FERC under Donald Trump. He was nominated by Joe Biden for reappointment to a second five-year term in May (see Joe Biden Renominates Dick Glick for Another FERC Term). Just last week, the rumor mill around the D.C. swamp predicted a hearing would be held next week by the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, chaired by WV Sen. Joe Manchin, to reappoint Glick (see Rumor: Dick Glick to Get Senate Renomination Hearing on Nov. 15). No more. Yesterday, Manchin's office said there will be no hearing for Glick--not this year, anyway. Meaning Glick is out.
