  • Power grab by federal regulators puts hometown electricity consumers at risk

This issue of The Weekly Standard marked the death of Senator Daniel P. Moynihan with a tribute by editor William Kristol. The cover also featured criticism of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's proposed changes to electricity grid management, arguing that FERC's regulatory overreach would harm hometown consumers and small businesses who had funded the electricity system's construction and maintenance in favor of speculative power traders.
