Me Energies: Rally For Affordable Energy Now
"Fight For Our Lights"
Saturday, October 15, 2022
12:00 - 1:00pm
Zeidler Union Square Park
301 W Michigan St, Milwaukee
Bottom Line:
We Energies is asking to:
- Raise electricity revenue by 8.4%
- Raise gas revenue by 10.7%
Are you getting that kind of raise?
More importantly, how are people with a high energy burden (like Erica) going to manage to keep the lights on and stay warm?
Be a part of this Saturday's message to the
PSC & We Energies - they will both see this!
(And more fun than writing!)
