Texas Governor Abbott ‘Doesn’t Care’ About Power Plant Breakdowns: Austin Mayor Steve Adler
Austin Mayor Steve Adler attacked his state's governor on Tuesday, writing on Twitter that Governor Greg Abbott is more interested in business than the needs of the people when it comes to power outages.
The mayor wrote about Abbott "boasting about Texas being good for business" before declaring that "[ma]ybe when a corporation tells the governor that an unreliable power grid is bad for business, he'll finally listen. He doesn't seem to care about whether it's bad for people."
Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT), the organization that operates 90 percent of the state's power to around 25 million, released an alert on Monday urging Texans to conserve energy due to many forced generation outages.
