Great decision! Instead of continuing to try to fight this in court & waste $, @CorpCommAZ should conduct a rulemaking or better yet look at how ratepayers in other states have experienced higher bills due to formula rates & forgo this rate mechanism in our state. @abescarr

State Farm's $523 million homeowners insurance rate hike goes into effect today for existing customers. If you are one of the almost 1.5 million Illinoisan's whose home is insured by State Farm, you could see an increase in your renewal of up to 40%. pirg.org/illinois/take-…

In a massive victory for Marylanders, the legislature just made groundbreaking changes to utility regulation. By reining in wasteful spending by BGE and other utilities, new consumer protections will save hundreds of millions of dollars. pirg.org/maryland/media…
