Dear Friend,



It's been nearly four long years since the shocking revelations of the $61 million bribery scandal surrounding House Bill 6 shook our state to its core. Now, with the indictments of former FirstEnergy CEO Chuck Jones and former Senior Vice President of External Affairs Michael Dowling <[link removed]>we're finally taking critical steps toward justice for all Ohioans.



Despite promises to surrender, Jones and Dowling failed to show up, and will most likely be taken into custody later today.



“The Jones Racket,” as they were dubbed by Attorney General David Yost, orchestrated millions of dollars of bribes to former Public Utilities Commission Chairman Sam Randazzo, who faced additional charges today. A combined 27 felony counts have been issued against the three.



The days of FirstEnergy executives denying their wrongdoing and escaping justice may finally come to an end, yet Ohio consumers continue to pay for the coal plant subsidies secured through illegal bribes and intimidation.



When will the leaders of Ohio face the truth?



Those responsible for the dollars flowing around House Bill 6 and the attack on the regulatory structure that accompanied it may have been exposed, but no changes have resulted that protect consumers or the credibility of our state government <[link removed]>.



Today’s news is welcomed and appreciated, but there's still work to be done to help restore trust and end the cycle of deceit perpetrated by FirstEnergy and their allies.



We need your help to keep fighting



Ohio Citizen Action will continue to watch as these proceedings unfold and extend our gratitude to the Ohio Attorney General’s office and local Summit County officials for their steadfast commitment to bringing all those behind this travesty to justice.
