"This reversal is a slap in the face to every community that has fought for clean drinking water. EPA’s decision isn’t grounded in science or law – it’s a political choice that endangers families throughout America."

"Industries make more money if they don’t have to spend money to remove waste where it starts — at their facilities. What this rule would do is basically increase industry profits at the expense of everyday North Carolinians."

We agree, Governor Stein! Ratepayers deserve real protection from excessive energy costs.

[Governor Josh Stein @NC_Governor]

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.
