The New York Democrat says the Department of Energy’s Office of Electricity should investigate the work being done by Con Edison to maintain and upgrade the city’s power grid after the power failure on Saturday night in some of the busiest parts of Manhattan.
Schumer says the federal agency should consider the New York City blackout a national priority because any lessons learned can be applied nationally.
In a statement Sunday, Con Ed said it would be conducting “a diligent and vigorous investigation” to figure out the cause of the blackout.
Chuky, you are doing the right thing g because President Trumph caused the blackout. Your brain is at work.
Chucks loves making noise. What exactly are you investigating? It was a fire . That happens
Stop wasting your time on nonsense, and start looking into the anti semites in your party instead!
Its his 2005th initiative. He never follows up.Whats happen with his initiative to investigate a shrinking space per passenger in the airli
planes?! As many many others . Next week there will be another initiatives. He cares about people who elected him, speciaaly his family. Everybody has a great job. Mazel Tov Shmuk!!!!
Chumy Shmukey just to get some attention.
You’re part of the evil party.
They hate America, hate Israel, hate religion.
Feh to all ur who support lowlife like this.
It’s Sunday so it’s time for Chuck.
Con Ed’s network has one of the highest reliability rates in the country. The redundancy of the underground network, as opposed to overhead lines, works very well. Always lessons to be learned but limited national implications.
But at least Chuck got some media attention which is really the only important things anyway.
Any Federal government probe into antisemitism in Congress??
Shame on you Mr. Shumer
