Abbott said many Atmos customers in North and central Texas went without natural gas needed to heat their homes for an “unacceptable time” and reportedly were unable to reach customer service representatives for help.

Deflect blame, eh, GregAbbott_TX?
Oh good. He’s angry. Guessing nothing will change except he’s disappointed
Oh and he wasn’t sloppy last year during the big winter storm where 200+ people died ?

how have the renewables been doing?
