California ratepayers are fed up with rapidly increasing energy costs. Thanks to California’s monopoly utilities — Pacific Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison, and San Diego Gas & Electric — electricity rates have gone up by as much as 110% in the last decade, and more than 50% just in the last three years. These increases come at a time when Californians are already paying more than double the national average for electricity and nearly triple what residents, farms and businesses pay in other western states.

ENERGY UNAFFORDABILITY CRISIS

California’s energy rates are unsustainable and are harming all residents, particularly those who can least afford it. Rising rates are also harming our economy and making it impossible for our businesses to compete.

Enough is enough! Policymakers need to get serious about California’s growing affordability crisis.
