ICYMI: LI leaders unite to bring Sunrise Wind to finish line John Durso, president of the Long Island Federation of Labor, AFL-CIO, said in the news release that region “cannot afford further delays to critical energy infrastructure. Lifting the stop work order allows Sunrise Wind to move forward delivering union jobs, strengthening our energy grid, and advancing the kind of real progress Long Island needs. After repeated attempts to disrupt this project, the court’s ruling is a much-needed win for Long Islanders.” libn.com/2026/02/06/li-… @OrstedUS #sunrisewind #OffshoreWind #greenenergy #renewableenergy
