The Public Service Commission doesn’t provide many opportunities for the public to get involved — but this month they are! The latest way to oppose Washington Gas (WGL)’s bad behavior is to show up at upcoming PSC hearings about WGL’s rate case (i.e., their request to increase everyone’s gas bills).
There are 2 more hearings this month:
April 21st, rally 4:30, hearing 5:00, Petworth Library, 4200 Kansas Ave NW
April 29th, rally 5:00, hearing 6:00, PSC office, 1325 G St NW
There are several ways to be involved:
You can speak during the hearing and be heard by PSC Commissioners, and/or
You can visually support our message, which could include attending the hearing in a Stop Project Pipes t-shirt, or posing as a construction worker outside to warn passersby that rate hikes are currently under construction!
If you are interested in participating in any way / on any day, please email extinctionrebelliondc@protonmail.com
