Public Comments for: HB120 - Public Utility Ombudsman, Office of the; established, delayed effective date.
HB3 Why do we have to pay for another "group" to tell people they get free money to fix their homes? Why should I have to work 3x as hard for what little I get, because someone else isn't willing to work? HB67 Offshore wind isn't going anywhere. Why are we having this? This is useless. HB74 How about we can recover the costs of lobbying out of the executives' pay. The SCC keeps approving garbage, and if VEPCO was required to be as watched as the regular people are, and with public reporting for all their fraud and abuse, we'd have lower rates (removing the clean energy money sucking mandates). Stop taking VEPCO's money, you're paid off just like a crook and then vote for it. HB120 The SCC is supposed to protect us!! We don't need MORE layers of govt doing the same thing. Either the SCC is doing it or it isn't. It is not, so get rid of it.
SUPPORT House Bill 120 the Office of the Public Utility Ombudsman established by this bill will help to support residential public utility customers by providing an independent resource to assist in navigating utility-related concerns. The Ombudsman can offer impartial guidance, help resolve disputes, and improve access to information for individuals and communities that lack the resources or familiarity with regulatory processes to effectively advocate for themselves. By institutionalizing this function, HB 120 strengthens transparency, accountability, and equitable access to assistance and oversight.
