My legislation, HB 2184, would require the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission to explicitly consider the public interest when making decisions that affect utility customers across the commonwealth. It passed the House with strong bipartisan support, by a 150-53 vote.

The bill now heads to the Pennsylvania Senate for consideration. Please contact your state senator and Senate Majority Leader Joe Pittman to urge them to bring the measure up for a vote and advance legislation that prioritizes the interests of Pennsylvania ratepayers and communities.
