I had to look at the linked article: "According to its website, the NYU State Impact Center currently has attorneys placed in the AG offices for Washington, D.C., Delaware, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, Minnesota, New Mexico, New York and Oregon. The attorney general running each of those offices is a Democrat."
It does not surprise me that the governor's cap and trade agenda is in now in round II, after being defeated in the last session, is being supported by outside interests,
