WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, today voted to advance the nomination of Colette Honorable to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
A majority of the members of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee gathered this morning off the Senate floor to approve by voice vote moving Honorable’s nomination out of committee.
Murkowski, the top Republican on the energy committee, told Honorable at a hearing last week that she needed to champion FERC’s role as the federal agency responsible for electric reliability.
