President Joe Biden has nominated Judy Chang, David Rosner, and Lindsay See to serve as Commissioners on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The nominees would fill two empty seats on FERC and replace Commissioner Allison Clements once her term expires in June.

“FERC plays a crucial role in ensuring that we have a modern energy system to provide reliable, healthy, and affordable electricity for everyone. Having a full complement of Commissioners at FERC will allow them to make and implement the important decisions before them. We look forward to a robust confirmation process before the Senate.”
