    This bill has yet to pass the Senate or the House and there are _a lot_ of points at which it could fail. It’s not a hard and fast pro or anti environment or consumer bill either. It’s large with a lot of moving parts and a brand new set of amendments. That’s what makes this article so helpful - it summarizes all of these elements. https://www.politico.com/news/2026/11/09/five-factors-permitting-reform-fate-01154190

    RE: https://sfba.social/@soaproot/117559118063843321 The count of the Colom lead has shifted a bit today. This article had him ahead 43 at 3 am although there’s still outstanding votes to count. The outcome won’t be final for a while. https://www.wlbt.com/2026/11/04/scott-colom-projects-victory-razor-thin-mississippi-senate-race-uncounted-ballots-linger/
