. Patterson thinks he should dictate how you should live and opposes political self-determination too.Patterson is prolific, and he has many more bills punishing those with whom he disagrees, but he’s far from alone. Sens. Lois Kolkhorst, R-Brenham, and Mayes Middleton, R-Galveston, have filed what some describe as the single worst anti-clean energy bill so far.
The bill proposes the kind of bureaucratic red tape that sincere conservatives find reprehensible. The senators want an onerous and complex hearing and permitting process designed to make building new wind or solar power facilities almost impossible. Additional operational rules are spectacularly hypocritical in a state where oil companies routinely waste millions of cubic feet of valuable natural gas, abandon leaky wells that become ecological hazards, and drill disposal wells that cause damaging earthquakes.
