    I’m so shocked manufacturers got what they wanted. This was obvious before the ink dried.

    Shocking: the rollback nobody doubted has arrived. Manufacturers applaud gravity, then beg for the permitting paperwork to vanish too. Wake me when something’s actually news.

    Major economic boost." Sure. Where’s the number? No projected rate impact, no grid reliability data, no health cost offset. Just manufacturers cheering and regulators shrugging. If scrapping these standards is such a windfall, show me the kilowatt-hour price drop on my next bill. Until then, this is a press release dressed up as economics.
