BGE is trying to raise your electric bill again.
Last Night, I testified before the Public Service Commission, urging them to reject BGE’s latest rate-increase proposal. The PSC is the state agency that regulates BGE, and it is holding hearings for BGE customers to testify about how these outrageous bills are affecting them.
Make your voice heard and join me in opposing BGE’s latest rate-hike proposal. Click the link in my bio to sign up.

Don't throw your jack-o'-lanterns into the trash where they will release methane as they rot.🎃
Right now, BGE is proposing increasing electric delivery rates by roughly 17% - which would mean $156 million more out of BGE customers’ pockets each year.

"That filth and dirt will be coming down with the river water." tinyurl.com/543bu4pu says a retired DPW operations engineer, describing the challenge posed by a years-long dredging backlog and a grime-filled pipeline as Susquehanna River flow is added to Baltimore tap water.

A @JHUBloombergCtr epidemiologist was in the @MDEnvironment parking lot, all ready. MDE had agreed to facilitate independent testing of ash from the BRESCO incinerator. But the day it was to happen, an upper-level MDE official abruptly canceled the plan. tinyurl.com/y63h24aj
ALT "We regret to inform you that the ash sampling plan needs to be postponed at this time," MDE's solid waste program administrator says in a 9/29/25 email to community members and researchers who were poised to carry out a split sampling plan on BRESCO ash.

As the leaves start filling your lawn, remember that you don't have to send them away. If you can't leave them lay where they fall, could you consider moving them to a corner of your yard to break down naturally while providing habitat for our smallest neighbors?
It's standing room only tonight at the public hearing on BRESO's permit to pollute.
Baltimore City is here in Curtis Bay to say NO to trash incineration!

As Baltimore County approves 10 more years of burning its trash in Baltimore City, a question: will @MayorBMScott keep his promise that the city's BRESCO contract (expiring in 2031) will be its last? tinyurl.com/2vt3eb25 Advocates say it's looking very iffy.
ALT Brandon Scott's promise in 2020 after supporting giving the BRESCO incinerator another 10-year contract to burn Baltimore's trash: “Under my administration,” he told The Brew, “we’re going to work to not burn as much at the incinerator as possible. And I will work my butt off to make sure that this is the last time we ever give them a new contract.”
Next Thursday is a critical opportunity to speak out against air pollution from the BRESCO trash incinerator: the public hearing on its application to renew its air pollution permit.
