U.S. Senator and 2026 frontrunner to become the next Governor of Alabama, @CoachForGov, voiced his support Wednesday for the multi-bill utility reform package moving through the Alabama Legislature. In a weekly call with in-state reporters, Tuberville urged lawmakers to pass the legislative package, saying the current Public Service Commission members who fail to keep rates down “need to go immediately.” “I’ve read this bill, and it’s very simple. We’re in a land rush. Companies are coming back to the U.S., and Alabama, with a heavy focus on moving all over the Southeast. It’s all state energy. It’s for these new industries, and I want to make sure our utilities are being responsible with taxpayer dollars,” Tuberville said. “The PSC isn’t aligned with the state leadership to keep utility rates down, which they need to be, and stop ridiculous regulations from being implemented. If they don’t do that, then they need to go immediately, not at the end of a six-year term,” he continued. “Alabama is one of only 10 states that elect their public service commissioners, and even with that, all three of Alabama’s current commissioners have been appointed, not elected. We need to raise the bar and ensure the right, qualified people are overseeing our utilities, not politicians looking for their next job or doing political favors when they’re up for reelection or election.” Read full story here: yellowhammernews.com/tuberville-cal… #Alabama #ALPolitics #Energy #Elections
