Depleted TVA Board to Meet Without Quorum After Trump Firings

In this mention

President Trump has fired two TVA board members—Michelle Moore and Joe Ritch—leaving the Tennessee Valley Authority with only four of nine board members, below the five-member quorum required for the board to conduct business. The firings follow a controversial op-ed by Tennessee senators demanding the TVA focus on nuclear energy, prompting criticism from clean energy advocates including Stephen Smith of the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, who called the move a reckless attempt at micromanaging the federal utility.
