Virginians pay the 6th highest electricity bills in the nation because of sweetheart deals for @DominionEnergy @SuhasforVA chipped away one chink in their armor two years ago and checks are in the mail now as a result. More needs to be done, and we’re going to keep fighting. https://t.co/nITKoJvitJ

Curious that @DominionEnergy increased costs for wind mirrors their recently reversed overcharges. I hope SCC scrutinizes filing carefully to see where they’re inflating costs and driving excess profits https://t.co/FBAbeOcKSO
I’m not anti @DominionEnergy so much as pro rate payer. Dominion deserves a fair profit and Virginians deserve to not get ripped off. Instead, according to the federal government,we have country’s 6th highest electricity bills. https://t.co/x5jOUTzapD
RT @will_cleveland: 6 bills in 2021 kept utility monopoly but gave SCC power to set fair rates Dominion opposed every single one They don…
Especially in the midst of a pandemic & economic crisis in which so many Virginians are struggling to keep up with rent & utility payments, it is more important than ever we take bold action to put consumers first & lower our constituents' electric bills. https://t.co/33CBIaUENq
Historical custom and practice of the GA is to give @DominionEnergy as many opportunities as possible to rewrite a bad bill. So we may be here a while @SarahVogelsong . SB 1380 left the House the first time with a good amendment that controlled cost and came back without it. https://t.co/50UBbFErGx
Proud to have supported the bill that resulted in this historic settlement which will deliver $330 million in refunds to @DominionEnergy customers and a reduction of electric rates https://t.co/ycbGM6Edh0
This IS exciting progress. In Virginia, Republicans refused to even hear my bill prohibiting stock ownership in the publicly owned utilities directly regulated by the General Assembly. Apparently the existing conflicts of interest are just too embarrassing. https://t.co/Qw2qA6KSHn
1 in 10 veterans earn near min wage. If @DominionEnergy was serious about supporting vets, it would stop opposing rate reform. With nation’s 6th highest electric bills, too many vets must choose between keeping lights on & food on the table b/c of Dominion https://t.co/9etTdXt7i2
RT @SallyLHudson: Delegate Ware has been a steadfast leader in our fight for fair energy bills. Let’s make 2022 the year we get it passed!
