BREAKING: @GovJanetMills vetoes bipartisan #LD1708.
Disappointing decision for Mainers.
But the citizens won't be deterred--we'll take the proposal to replace CMP/Versant with Maine's own consumer-owned utility directly to the voters.
#mepolitics #ClimateActionNow
Not too late to call @GovJanetMills and ask her to sign #LD1708 so Mainers can vote this fall on who runs our electric grid.
Give the Governor a ring: 207-287-3531 x4.
#mepolitics #ClimateActionNow #ReplaceCMP
Actually, given @cmpco's history of malfeasance it's not at all surprising they'd jeopardize public safety over their own billing error.
The question is why does CMP continue to get away with this behavior?
Call @GovJanetMills today and ask her to sign #LD1708: 207-287-3531 x4
.@cmpco nearly cuts power to Buckfield Fire Dept. after another billing fiasco.
Town Manager: “It’s hard to believe CMP would shut down a critical public safety facility with no notice and due to an error on their part.”

Mainers rallied at the Maine State House on Tuesday, 6/30/2021 to support the vote on Bill LD 1708. We spoke to a few of them about the cause they were supporting, and how they use the First Amendment. Watch now - https://t.co/7jLggtZDpp #OurPowerMaine #PineTreePower #LD1708 #CMP
Mainers spoke up and the Legislature responded by passing #LD1708.
Now speak up again and let @GovJanetMills know Mainers want LD1708 enacted so we can vote on our energy future this fall.
Contact the Gov. today: https://t.co/TnjMDTY2zV

. @cmpco wants a big rate hike in August. @versantpower customers to pay 25% more next year.
We pay more as service declines.
