Florida County Commissioners: No More Rate Hikes!

Florida electricity bills keep going up. That's because utilities continue to use fossil fuels to power our cities and homes. And in Florida, those costs are passed directly onto ratepayers. As the cost of fuel goes up, so do our rates.

Year after year, the Florida Legislature passes utility-friendly legislation that locks in fossil fuels and charges Florida families the cost. And the Florida Public Service Commission — the entity that regulates utilities in Florida — has become a rubber stamp for rate hikes. Floridians now pay some of the highest electricity bills in the country.

Our local governments can protect us from soaring bills by passing comprehensive policy that phases out fossil fuels, invests in energy efficiency, and alleviates the energy burden.

Urge your county commissioners to say NO to more rate hikes and YES to passing an affordable energy plan now!
