If Your Utility Bills Are High Now ...
Sen. Bill 8 would expand the Ky. Public Service Commission from three commissioners to five, in ways LCAN believes would not serve the public well. Call the hotline, above, to tell the "full senate" you deserve a Public Service Commission designed to serve the public without partisanship.
Who Picks Up The Tab?
Sen. Bill 57 before the Ky. legislature calls for ratepayers and taxpayers to subsidize a utility's costs for seeking permits to build a nuclear power plant long before it might ever be built. Call 800-372-7181, the legislative hotline to tell the full senate your electric bills are high enough, and you don't want to pay more for fishing expeditions.
Expanded Licenses to Pollute?
Sen. Bill 178, aka the "Body Count Bill," would restrict state agency's ability to protect public health and the environment. It would prohibit them from adopting protections stronger than federal standards. If no federal standards exist, the bill would require proof of manifest bodily harm before action could be taken!
