The 10 highest-paid utility company executives raked in more than $220 million last year.

Meanwhile, utility companies asked for a record $31 billion in rate increases, affecting 81 million customers across the country.

Yes: utility CEOs are raking it in while millions struggle to pay their bills.

Healthcare should be a public utility. Would you want wealthy water CEOs deciding who goes thirsty?

Trump is driving up utility costs by blocking clean energy projects, all to subsidize fossil fuels. We're not going back. Our Energy Bills Relief Act will:
🌱 Restore clean energy tax credits
🌱 Prevent utility shut-offs
🌱 Incentivize utility companies to lower energy bills

ICE agents pose as utility workers to get inside immigrants’ homes to detain them. The utility company has posted guidelines on how to recognize real utility employees. I have no words!

ICE dressed up like utility workers who offer "free estimates" if invited inside. Neighbor recorded the ICE goons and intervened, just before a young boy let them into his home.

Tucson Electric Power was not told ICE agents would be impersonating their utility workers as part of the ICE raid.

ALL states need to pass a utility law like this. Consumers should only pay for utility service, not marketing, investor relations, or lobbying.

Colorado and Connecticut lowered utility bills by reining in lobbying
A handful of other states have introduced similar legislation with the aim of saving ratepayers hundreds of thousands of dollars.
