Gas utility companies say rate hikes are “necessary.” But CEO bonuses and unnecessary pipelines tell a different story. Tell them enough is enough → utilityactionalliance.org

💡3 in 4 Americans are worried about where their utility costs are headed. They should be. Utilities requested nearly $31 billion in rate hikes in 2025 alone, more than double the year before.

On top of a proposed 15% rate hike, Duke Energy is now asking North Carolinians to foot the bill for an additional $800 million in increased fuel costs. I vetoed Senate Bill 266 for exactly this reason: because it would further expose North Carolina ratepayers to volatile fuel markets and shift the cost of electricity from large industrial users onto the backs of regular people, making your utility bills more expensive. Republican legislators knew this too – but still left North Carolinians holding the bag. The Utilities Commission should step in to secure an affordable energy future for North Carolinians. We must do everything we can to make life more affordable for families, not more expensive.

It shouldn’t be controversial to say that no one should be forced to choose between paying their utility bill and putting food on the table.

A reminder that LIHEAP helps millions of low-income households survive extreme heat and cold. Trump wants to wipe it out while asking for $1.5 trillion in military spending. The priorities could not be clearer.

Somewhere right now, a family in PA is choosing between paying their power bill & putting food on the table. Meanwhile, Exelon's CEO took home $15.6 million last year. And PECO just filed for another rate hike. We'll never stop talking about this.

We started Utility Action Alliance because this industry has gone unchecked for far too long. Utilities wield enormous power and face far too little scrutiny. That only changes when people speak out and push back.

Utility companies be like: sorry about the bill… anyway, here’s another one.

Utilities want you to believe rate hikes are unavoidable. They are not. What IS avoidable: charging customers for corporate branding, lobbying, lawsuits, and executive lifestyle expenses. Strip out the corruption, and your bill could look a whole lot different.

"Rising household electricity prices and controversy over data centers are reshaping low-profile elections for control over utilities that build power plants and power lines — and bill people for the cost. [O]nce-sleepy contests are becoming political brawls." Damn right.

Utilities requested double the rate increases in 2025 that they did in 2024. If that feels unsustainable, that’s because it is. Our leaders need to get serious about holding utilities accountable.

Indiana regulators launched an affordability-themed listening tour after grilling the state’s “big five” utilities. That alone tells you how serious the frustration has become. People are fed up & the usual utility excuses are wearing thin. indianacapitalchronicle.com/2026/03/24/big…

If utility companies wanted to pull a real April Fools' prank, they’d send you an affordable bill. That would shock everyone.

CUB Michigan said, "The MPSC didn't grant Consumers Energy the full extent of its rate hike request, but still, the 6.1% residential rate increase approved today is much higher than the rate of inflation."
