John,

There’s a utility company in Connecticut which will remain nameless in this email — but Connecticut residents know exactly which one we’re talking about.

This company has engaged in price-gouging during the pandemic, and after a recent storm left hundreds of thousands of Connecticut homes without power, their response was a complete failure.

But here’s the thing, John: several prominent Connecticut Republicans have close ties to this company — three GOP Senators literally work for them, and GOP Minority House Leader Themis Klarides is engaged to one of their executives.

Democrats in the Connecticut legislature have introduced legislation to ensure that public utilities are held accountable to the public, and this month a special session will likely address this bill.

Customers of this company saw MASSIVE increases in their electric bills this summer due to a ridiculous rate hike, and their horrific response to a tropical storm left more than 800,000 Connecticut residents without power — in many cases for more than a week longer than customers of other CT utility companies.

Connecticut has THREE Republican Senators who work for this company. Chip in now to help us elect Democrats up and down the ballot who will work for people, not for corporations.
