The @californiapuc.bsky.social approved spending increases that resulted in six rate hikes for PG&E customers in 2024.

PG&E customers have seen a 64% increase in their bills since 2020. Recently, PG&E bragged that their customers can expect a $5 reduction in their monthly bills. But $5 is nothing compared to the $115/month increase we’ve seen in the last 5 years.

It is not fair that California’s working families should have to spend a single penny covering for Edison's mistakes. www.latimes.com/environment/...

DOJ is looking out for taxpayers, but who’s looking out for California ratepayers? abc7.com/post/doj-fil...

While customers saw higher bills, @SCE quietly cashed in, backed by a $38–$43 billion capital spending plan through 2028. 💰 The more they spend, the more they profit.

It’s long past time for utility accountability. Californians deserve affordable, reliable, clean energy. The California Public Utilities commission is an unelected regulatory body appointed by @cagovernornewsom.bsky.social @gavinnewsom.bsky.social

#California 's electricity rates are the 2nd highest in the country. Politicians in Sacramento have shielded utilities from liability for wildfires they cause, and made working people foot the bill.

“I’m deeply disappointed in the fact that ratepayers are being treated like an endless bucket of money because they are not.” says Senator Wahab. This is what real leadership looks like in Sacramento.

Surprise, surprise. PG&E gets what they want. The people pay. And the politicians render themselves ineffective. This is the pattern. This is why electricity rates are so high.

We’ve had enough from California’s Monopoly Utilities that prioritize profit above people and planet.

By exposing the corruption of California’s investor-owned utilities, we will hold them and our government accountable. EWG has a long and proud history of taking on big oil, big pesticide companies, big polluters, and more.
