Governor Lamont Statement on Committee Vote Approving the Nomination of David Arconti as PURA Commissioner [[link removed]]

Posted on March 13, 2025

(HARTFORD, CT) – Governor Ned Lamont released the following statement in response to the vote today by the members of the legislature’s Executive and Legislative Nominations Committee approving the nomination of David Arconti, Jr. to serve as a commissioner of the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA):

“The addition of David Arconti as a PURA commissioner will bring a fresh perspective to this body, especially when it comes to initiatives that will reduce energy costs for consumers and promote clean energy. Several years ago when he was a legislator, David led approval of the Take Back Our Grid Act, reforming how our utilities are regulated from a cost-of-service ratemaking structure – an approach that benefitted the interests of utilities – to a performance-based structure, which puts the interests of consumers first. I look forward to his confirmation by the full General Assembly so that he can contribute to the innovative and sustainable energy solutions that we need in Connecticut.”
