AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

EPA Oversight Shift: The EPA is pushing to move toxic coal-ash monitoring to states, a move that could loosen federal guardrails after years of state-by-state fights over how unlined ash ponds are handled. Sports & Culture: The NBA world is mourning Jason Collins, the league’s first openly gay active player, who died at 47; and Memphis Grizzlies forward Brandon Clarke also died at 29. Tech & Energy: Google and SpaceX are reportedly discussing orbital data centers for AI under Project Suncatcher—an idea that sounds wild, but tracks with rising power and cooling demands. Cost-of-Living: Gas prices are driving inflation to a three-year high, while airlines cancel thousands of UK flights in May as jet fuel costs spike. Tennessee Politics: Gov. Bill Lee endorsed Dennis Powers in a contested GOP primary, while Nashville and Knoxville continue local policy battles—from parking limits to indoor smoking rules.
