Charlie Summers from the Maine Energy Marketers Association thanks Matt Gagnon for the opportunity to update listeners on the energy choice bill, which passed the Maine House 81-67 and is now back in the Senate. The bill aims to protect Mainers’ right to choose their energy sources, particularly for heating and transportation, and prevents municipalities from banning legal energy forms, primarily targeting fossil fuel appliances. Despite a tie vote in the Senate, Summers is optimistic about the bill’s prospects, especially with Governor Mills’ pledge to support energy choice. He urges listeners to contact their senators and the Democratic Senate office to support LD 556.
