Ratepayer Protection Act

Energy and Commerce Committee · Rep. Gabe Evans (R-CO)

The bill would amend federal utility regulation law to establish a standard allowing electric utilities to recover the full costs of infrastructure upgrades made specifically to serve large industrial or commercial customers.
