Thanks Steve, this is a critical issue for many in our state, already burdened by very high rents and living costs. I encourage your readers to check out the George Wiley Center's website -- they do really great work in this and many other areas -- thank you Camilo, Daisy, and others at the GWC!
a complicated issue. Part of the reason electric rates go up in the winter is the price of natural gas, used for both heating and power generation, becomes more valuable, made worse by our support for the war in Ukraine and the sanctions on Russia - so some natural gas is also used to supply Europe as an alternative to Russia. That said, I think the electric price this winter is actually a bit less than last year which was a bit less than the year before. Look it up. But it is a good issue for politicians because nobody likes paying
