Benedetto criticizes the suspension, explicitly includes Revolution Wind and calls for its reversal.
Federal officials halted Revolution Wind construction twice, citing national security. Rhode Island senators criticized the orders, and a judge granted preliminary relief. The project later reached its final-turbine installation milestone.
