President Donald Trump has indicated he will not approve permits for wind turbines. This stance comes even as he expresses support for a larger permitting reform bill.

The debate centers on whether permit certainty is achievable and what lessons should be drawn from past offshore wind discussions. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
