AB 1167

California Ratepayer Protection Act

In the face of rising energy costs, AB 1167 would keep the cost of utility lobbying, promotional advertising, and other activities that are for the primary benefit of utility shareholders out of Californians’ energy bills. This would ensure accountability and transparency for how investor-owned utilities (IOUs) spend ratepayer dollars.
