Texas is a red state with its power grid managed by red people. You can blame AOC for a lot of things but this isn't one of them.

Obama’s 2011 Cross State Air Pollution Rule directly lead to this disaster. Three coal fired plants shut down in Texas over the last ten years because the required retrofits and new operating requirements (such as not being able to use the coal they were mining onsite and having to ship in cleaner coal from Wyoming) made them unprofitable. Therefore, they were closed.

This disaster is DIRECTLY caused by the policies pursued by the Obama Administration. If those three plants had still been operating, this doesn’t happen.

Yeah, and the Federal government imposes emission standards on power generators in Texas... AOC and those that think like her when it comes to energy generation are to blame for this mess, along with those that did not invest in winterizing their systems...
