Dear Friend, 



Sam Randazzo has resigned from his position as chairman of the Ohio Public Utilities Commission following reports that FirstEnergy paid $4 million to his company. <[link removed]>



While not named in the report, the energy company says the fee was paid to “an entity associated with an individual who subsequently was appointed to a full-time role as an Ohio government official directly involved” in regulating FirstEnergy.



The resignation wraps up a tumultuous week, beginning with an FBI raid of Randazzo’s home Monday morning. Randazzo's departure adds to mounting evidence of government corruption related to FirstEnergy's coal and nuclear bailout.



It's great news for Ohio, but we must keep the momentum going







Ohio Consumers Power Alliance launched a campaign <[link removed]> encouraging Ohioans to speak out against Sam Randazzo and 1,500 people like you wrote to Governor DeWine asking for Randazzo to be replaced. 



Look what we can accomplish together.







Nowwe must turn our full attention toa total and immediate repeal of HB 6



FirstEnergy’s $4million payment is evidence of even more expansive corruption than we knew, and even greater reason for the legislature to repeal all of HB 6 and start over. It’s all tainted, so a full and immediate repeal is the only acceptable outcome. 



We will do our part to get you the information you need to hold decision makers like Randazzo accountable. Please do your part to support our citizen-funded campaigns.  <[link removed]>

Thank you!

p.s. Please tell your legislator to fully repeal HB6 NOW. <[link removed]> Even if you sent a message weeks or months ago, send another one! We're working to get action on a repeal before the end of the year, and your legislators need to hear from you.
