“The Public Service Commission’s approval of Orange & Rockland’s gas and electric rate hikes is a disgrace. At a time when Hudson Valley families are struggling to keep the lights on, our utility companies continue to line their pockets with complete disregard for what their own ratepayers can bear.
As the Senate utilities investigation ramps up, O&R and the Public Service Commission will be hearing from me and my committee. Since the company expects to rake in an additional $34.5 million over the next few years (on the backs of their customers), I assume they can spare a few bucks for the drive to Albany to answer for their greed.
To my constituents facing mounting utility arrears, please get in touch with my team. We’re here for you.”
