U.S. Senate Energy Committee Approves 3 Biden FERC Nominees

In early March, President Joementia Biden nominated three new candidates to become Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) commissioners (see Biden Announces 3 New FERC Commissioner Nominees, Finally). The three, two Democrats and one Republican faced questions from the Senate Energy & Natural Resources Committee in a hearing held later in March (see 3 FERC Nominees on the Hot Seat at Senate Hearing, No Fireworks). On Monday of this week, the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, the committee overseeing their nominations and appointments, voted to advance all three to a full floor vote. There's no doubt they will be confirmed.
