New England officials oppose Trump order to stop nearly finished offshore wind farm

The Democratic governors of Rhode Island and Connecticut are opposing a Trump administration order to halt work on the nearly complete Revolution Wind offshore wind farm, citing its importance for renewable energy and climate goals. The project, about 80% finished, was halted due to concerns over national security, though specifics were not provided. Critics argue the move is politically motivated and detrimental to clean energy progress, especially as the project could power over 350,000 homes and help combat climate change. The dispute highlights ongoing conflicts over offshore wind development in the US.
