Arizona Corp Commission: Rate Hikes Impact Low-Income Families

The Arizona Corporation Commission, a group of five elected members, holds the power to approve rate hikes for utilities, impacting every households electric bills. In the scorching summer heat, where temperatures soar to 115 degrees, these increases can be life-threatening for low-income families, seniors, and those with disabilities. A recent study reveals that one in six Arizona homes spends over six percent of their income on energy, with vulnerable residents often choosing between paying bills, buying groceries, or getting prescriptions. Public input can make a difference, as learning about the commission and participating in rate case testimony can advocate for affordability and protect health during heat waves.
