Tucson Electric Power (TEP) is requesting an 11.8% rate increase and an increase in a service charge of $2.00 per month, making the entire increase in residential ratepayers’ bills an average of $16.22 per month. This impacts low-income communities that already shoulder a disproportionate energy burden. Plus, TEP is proposing no funding for coal-impacted communities for economic transition, including for the Navajo Nation and Hopi Tribe, communities in which TEP has contributed to environmental harm.
Please speak up for a just and equitable transition from fossil fuels to clean energy! If you are in Tucson, please attend this upcoming public comment session and also sign the petition today.
