Fighting for Fair Utility Rates in West Virginia

West Virginians are paying too much for essential utilities—electricity, water, and natural gas. As your advocate, I am committed to lowering these costs and ensuring that hardworking families and small businesses get the relief they deserve.

For too long, utility companies have been granted rate hikes while our communities struggle to keep up. We need leadership that prioritizes the people, not corporate profits. That means:

✅ Demanding Transparency – Holding utility companies accountable for every rate increase and ensuring fair pricing for customers.
✅ Strengthening Regulation – Working with the Public Service Commission to stop unnecessary rate hikes and put an end to predatory billing practices.
✅ Expanding Energy Options – Investing in alternative energy sources, grid modernization, and consumer protections to drive down costs in the long term.
✅ Protecting Seniors & Low-Income Families – Advocating for stronger assistance programs to ensure that no West Virginian has to choose between keeping the lights on and putting food on the table.

Lowering utility rates isn’t just about economics—it’s about fairness, accountability, and putting our people first. Together, we can push back against corporate overreach and make utilities affordable for everyone in West Virginia.

Join me in this fight. Let’s put power back where it belongs—in the hands of the people.
