Alabama Senator Proposes Expanding Public Service Commission

Published 5 days, 7 hours ago
Description

Alabama State Senator Clyde Chambliss proposes expanding the Public Service Commission from three to seven members, with each district electing one commissioner. This change aims to increase local input on utility rates and empower everyday people whove been underrepresented for decades. The bill includes a rate freeze until a majority of new commissioners take office, staggered elections for stability, and annual public hearings. Chambliss believes this reform, similar to corrections department improvements, is crucial as Alabamians pay billions in utility bills annually.
