The U.S. Senate has confirmed three nominees to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), ensuring a Democratic majority on the key regulatory agency. David Rosner, Judy Chang, and Lindsay See, all Democrats, were confirmed to serve on FERC. Rosner, a FERC analyst and former detailee to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, was confirmed with a 68-26 vote and will serve until July 2027. The confirmations, made on Thursday, are seen as a significant move to maintain President Joe Biden’s influence on the commission, regardless of the upcoming November election results. A fully staffed FERC is considered essential for the economy and American innovation, particularly in modernizing the energy grid.
