Republicans and Democrats are joining to increase the pressure on the White House to revoke its plan to sell off federal public utilities’ assets.

Sens. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., the chairman of the Environmental and Public Works Committee, and Maria Cantwell of Washington, the top Democrat on the Energy and Natural Resources Committee, are leading the effort against the White House plan, which was included in President Trump’s fiscal 2019 budget request. Nearly two dozen senators joined them in a campaign to stop the plan.
