“AARP Arizona is thrilled the Arizona Corporation Commission adopted our recommendations in the APS rate case order issued today. AARP Arizona has been focused on the issues surrounding the previous rate case, which was issued in 2017.

With today’s decision, AARP has been vindicated in our decision, and glad to know that then and now we will always fight for the 50+” Dana Kennedy, State Director for AARP Arizona said.
