Hello Friend!



Over the past few months, members like you have signed petitions, made phone calls, written letters, and recorded videos <[link removed]>demanding that Gov. DeWine listen to the people and reject utility campaign contributions.



Instead, Governor DeWine and Lieutenant Governor Husted continue to take money from the same utility companies that brought us House Bill 6 and shut off the power for hundreds of thousands of families during last month’s life-threatening heat waves. Most of us don’t have $61 million to spend on campaign contributions.



In April alone, Governor DeWine took $13,000 from AEP, Ohio's largest electric utility 



Governor DeWine has the power to end this culture of corruption at the Public Utilities Commission. Instead, he chooses to profit from it while all of us are left in the dark.



Don’t let Governor DeWine off the hook 



Call him today (614) 644-4357



Even better, send us a video of you doing it (upload here) <[link removed]>!

AEP officials will appear before the PUCO to discuss this month's electric power outages. The meeting is open to the public and will also be live-streamed on the PUCO’s YouTube channel <[link removed]>.
