According to Dooley, lawmakers should be fighting to ensure consumers have multiple energy options because it represents conservative ideals that promote free market choices.

"At the beginning of 2013, I was the first conservative in the state [of Georgia] that began to strongly advocate for solar. A lot of times, a lot of the narratives that conservatives and Republicans have heard are coming from groups that are connected with fossil fuel interests."
