Zay Removed Over Utility Rate Hike | Indianapolis News
Description
Governor Braun has ousted Andy Zay from the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission, citing noncompliance — a move that’s sparking outrage. Once appointed chairman, Zay was demoted after approving a controversial rate hike for AES Indiana customers. Critics, including Rep. Cherrish Pryor, call it “too little, too late,” arguing his removal doesn’t undo the harm done to struggling ratepayers. Pryor insists real change requires legislative action, not just regulatory reshuffling, and vows to push for laws that prioritize everyday Hoosiers over corporate interests. The episode underscores a deeper struggle: who truly benefits from Indiana’s utility regulations — and how to ensure fairness in essential services.
