Just say NO to PG&E's high rates
PG&E currently has proposals for $4 billion in new rate hikes pending at the CPUC. Do you think PG&E’s rates are too high already? Speak out against PG&E's unfair rate hikes.
Protect Public Safety and 9-1-1 Service
Demand a NO vote: Protect 911 emergency service access. Tell the governor to reject SB-1375, AT&T sponsored legislation that could shut off emergency access completely to those without a landline phone.
Defend basic phone service, demand accountability
Phone rates have gone up by as much as 600% in the last 3 years and the CPUC wants to let phone companies have unlimited rate increases. Take action to demand affordable phone service for all Californians.
Say NO to higher PG&E bills
PG&E is asking the CPUC for a $4 billion rate increase, despite having the highest rates in California and paying their CEO more than the CEO of Goldman Sachs. Tell the CPUC that's wrong, and that PG&E shouldn't be allowed to raise bills by 30% in an economic crisis.
