Clip from State Senator Ben Downing's first online town hall. He accepted only one question regarding the Wind Energy Siting Reform Act (WESRA) which, if passed, will strip control from local communities and municipalities and open the flood gates to a rash of industrial wind turbine developments in Berkshire County. WESRA is a machine custom-built for the wind developers who are receiving huge windfall profits through subsidies and tax credits. The Deval/Downing goal of 2000MW of wind power is only achievable through this legislation. It is important to note that Downing did not directly answer Michelle's question -- he gave a political speech.
