In the near future, I plan to re-introduce legislation (SB 819 from last session) that would increase the fines and penalties for those who vandalize or cause destruction of any part of a power grid. In light of the events in North Carolina (winter of 2022), there needs to be more accountability for purposeful damage done to our critical infrastructure. Doing damage to the power grid comes with huge national security risks and it should not be taken lightly.
 
I hope you will join me in cosponsoring this legislation.
