AARP Alabama calling for a review of utility rates

13 Utility meter

Read AARP Alabama State Director Jesse Salinas' guest op/ed from Sunday's Montgomery Advertiser in which he asks the Alabama Public Service Commission to review the profit percentage (return on equity) for Alabama's public utilities.

These Alabama  electric and gas companies are allowed to earn a larger percentage of profits than utilities in any other state – and Alabamians are paying for it.  Our gas and electric bills are some of the highest in the South.
