Norfolk, VA – Virginia families are facing skyrocketing electricity bills, but MAGA Jason Miyares has done nothing to protect them – instead, siding with Donald Trump and extreme Republicans’ tax and spending law “that will make energy costs worse.” According to CNBC, residential electricity prices in states like Virginia – “where consumers already pay much more per kilowatt-hour for electricity – could increase more than the national average.”
MAGA Miyares has a long history of failing to protect Virginians from special interests harming the environment, including suing the EPA over a rule that would have required a power station to adopt clean energy standards at the behest of the state’s largest energy company. Between failing to protect Virginia from Trump’s destruction of environmental protections and giving special interest groups a free pass, Jason Miyares is letting Virginia’s working families foot the bill for rising electricity bills – all while inflation and housing prices are also on the rise.
Communications Director Georgia Greenleaf:
“Virginians have higher bills because MAGA Miyares has failed to stand up to Trump’s extreme policies and special interest groups taking advantage of working families. The attorney general should be focused on protecting the interests of Virginians, not pandering to MAGA extremism and special interests.”
