Just say NO to PG&E's high rates

PG&E currently has proposals for $4 billion in new rate hikes pending at the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC)

Do you think PG&E’s rates are too high already?

PG&E’s rates are already:

• Higher than municipal utilities in CA
• Higher than Southern California Edison
• Among the highest in the U.S

PG&E’s rates pay for corporate excesses including:

• Inflated executive salaries and bonuses
• Millions in lobbying and campaign contributions
• Millions on Prop 16 and other efforts to defeat public power
• Billions on dumb smart meters

TURN is asking the CPUC to:

• Reduce perks for high paid executives
• Reduce political and lobbying expenses
• Reduce costs of marketing programs designed to rehabilitate PG&E's tarnished image
• Eliminate a $5 million project to "Enhance Employees' Online Experience"
  

TURN is not alone in fighting this outrageous rate hike—other consumer groups, including the CPUC's Division of Ratepayer Advocates and the Consumer Federation of California are also opposed. In fact, if all the recommendations of consumer groups were accepted by the CPUC, rates would actually come down.

The CPUC held hearings throughout PG&E's service territory in May and June.
