Treating you like an ATM while they rake in record breaking profits... enough is enough. 😡

They sure do. They love restricting your choices just to turn around and treat you like an ATM. 😡😤

They really are the worst! Repeated rate hikes and raking in massive profits all while restricting consumer freedom and choice.

They sure are...

Yep! Enough is enough. It's time to say NO to these monopoly energy utilities and their unchecked profits.

That's outrageous... Californians shouldn't be treated like ATMs just for choosing to get their basic heating/cooling needs met by these greedy utility companies like PG&E. Especially when they're posting record breaking profits. 😡

How much are your PG&E bills jumping up monthly when you have to turn on the AC or heat?

For too long, ratepayers have been treated like ATMs. It's time to say NO to monopoly, for-profit energy utilities.

THIS. 👏👏

It would be cheaper, safer & would directly benefit fire survivors & their communities. Which politicians & candidates for office are willing to stand up to Edison & make it happen?

Let’s help them build with rooftop solar and energy storage systems that can reduce the need for an expensive and dangerous grid while also helping them join one of the nearby municipal utilities, like Pasadena?

After the Eaton Fire, SCE is charging some residents as much as $40,000 just to reconnect to the electric grid. There’s a better way. Why not let the community of Altadena cut the cord with SCE.

Yep, you nailed it! These monopoly, for-profit utilities treat California ratepayers like ATMs all because they cozy up with those who are supposed to be regulating them.

Constantly failing infrastructure but still getting approved for all their rate hikes. All while posting recording breakings profits year after year... Californians deserve better than PG&E.

PG&E has unreliable grids and constant outages every year. All while they rake in record profits, leaving Californians with the costs of their failing infrastructure.

Yep. Relying on big, for-profit utility companies and their, poorly-managed and overly centralized grid is not working for California.

The needs of California consumers must come first. It's time to say no to monopoly energy utilities and their outrageous rate hikes & unchecked profits.

We need to stop letting these utilities run roughshod over working people by jacking up their electricity bills whenever they get a chance.

Remember: the more they spend, the more they earn, so a 0.5% reduction in rate of return does next to nothing when the state approves billions in spending increases.

Cutting profits by a fraction of a percent is just tinkering around the edges while the corrupt utility business model keeps treating working families like an ATM machine.

Which gubernatorial candidate will actually tackle the Monopoly Utility problem? Out of control spending that leads directly to higher profits for shareholders & higher electricity bills for working families.

PG&E treats ratepayers like ATMs... enough is enough.

Utility spending increased by more than 300% over the last 20 years even though electricity demand was flat. And very little of that spending was due to wildfires. Who let the utilities spend like drunken sailors? The CPUC. Time for real action, not empty promises.

During the year of the Eaton Fire, SCE “reported a better-than expected profit” – we don’t have to live like this, folks.

👏👏 BINGO. PG&E is bleeding Californians dry.

Aaaaaand here we go again. Unreliable grids, constant outages, skyrocketing prices, all while utility monopolies rake in record profits and Californians are saddled with the bills.
