Commentary: U.S. Senate Must Approve President Trump’s New TVA Board Nominees

Description

For six months the Tennessee Valley Authority Board has not had enough board members for a quorum. Thankfully, President Trump is working with Tennessee’s two U.S. Senators Marsha Blackburn and Bill Hagerty to help provide much needed sweeping reform to the TVA to help restore accountability and get the TVA back on track to its core mandate: energy production. 

While the process has been slow like any government process, hope is now on the horizon that Trump’s TVA board nominees will be confirmed soon, as the U.S. Senate’s Committee on Environment and Public Works held a hearing recently for four of the five nominees. At least there is clear progress towards getting the nominees out of committee and to the full Senate for hopeful approval.
