Governor Vetoes the Mutual Utility Bill

Governor Kulongoski today used the power of the pen to veto SB 671, the Mutual Utility Bill. CUB has been strongly opposed to the Mutual Utility Bill, and is relieved that this utility model, which left much of its regulation and governance structure unexplained, will not be foisted upon Oregon ratepayers.

We appreciate the Governor’s strong stand for customers and hope that he will look with an equally critical eye upon SB 1008, the Oregon Community Power Bill, another bill which legislators passed, despite its containing a provision that harms residential customers in the PGE service territory. (See below.)

Thank you to all the CUB supporters who have contacted the Governor during the past few weeks. Your voices were heard!To keep up with CUB, like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter!
