Assemblymember Sarahana Shrestha will be hosting seven Energy Democracy town halls across the district, kicking things off in Rhinebeck. on Tuesday, Sept. 19th at 6:30 PM. Central Hudson currently is in the midst of a rate case, where they hope to negotiate with the Public Service Commission to increase our rates by nearly 20% (!). We’ll discuss what our immediate next steps are to stop the rate hikes, and our strategies for ending reliance on greedy private energy companies which hurt our communities.
