Murphy Statement On Preliminary Injunction For Revolution Wind Project

WASHINGTON-U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) released a statement after a federal judge granted a preliminary injunction to block the Trump administration's stop work order on the Revolution Wind project:

"The Trump administration's attempt to shut down the Revolution Wind project - which went through exhaustive reviews by multiple federal agencies and is 80 percent complete - has nothing to do with national security. It's just Trump making good on a corrupt promise he made to oil executives in exchange for a campaign donation. The court made the right call, and this administration should abandon its efforts to kill thousands of good paying union jobs and raise energy prices for hundreds of thousands of working families."
