Energy policy passes house energy committee without being read
Rep Gary Glenn of Michigan has attempted to stop a freight train.
The Michigan House Energy Committee voted to forward energy legislation to the entire House of Representatives BEFORE it WAS READ. That’s right; they voted on energy policy that wasn’t even reviewed, understood or had a chance to be read by the committee members. It will now go to the full House for review.
The bill they passed, by a majority, will in fact limit if not eliminate MI electric customer choice.
- The 10% of energy users will have to return to the utility default service.
- Customer Choice marketers will withdraw as the requirements put upon providing service ARE NOT commercially available.
o Since MI Electric Customer Choice began every energy marketer has delivered its energy, never a default
- Michigan will continue to have the HIGHEST electric costs in the Mid-west
- Michigan will have some of the most polluting power plants in Mid-west
We salute Rep Gary Glenn for trying to bring reason to a process that has been dominated by lobbyist and utility donations to politicians.
Unfortunately Rep Gary Glenn, could not stop this runaway train that carried this bill forward.
