Officials at Berkshire Hathaway Energy, along with a team of high-powered lobbyists, have been meeting with state leaders, including Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick and House Speaker Dade Phelan, R-Beaumont, and officials in the office of Gov. Greg Abbott — as well as key industry groups such as the Texas Association of Manufacturers to pitch the $8.3 billion plan.
