The Herald News (Fall River) reports that U.S. Reps. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) and James McGovern (D-Mass.) support a letter by four Senators proposing to deny FERC federal funding to finalize its authorization of the Weaver’s Cove LNG proposal. Rep. Frank noted that he is working to include the same language in a measure to be considered by the House Appropriations Energy and Water Development Subcommittee, and is “confident this will happen this summer.”
