We’ll be talking with neighbors about the rate hike and building momentum heading into the hearings.

The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) is hosting two public hearings where community members can speak out directly against AEP’s proposed rate hike:

• Wednesday, December 4 at 6:00 PM
  Columbus Main Library — 96 S. Grant Ave.
• Monday, December 9 at 11:00 AM
  PUCO Offices — 180 E. Broad St.

This is the moment to let commissioners know how this increase would hurt families and communities.

If you plan to testify, please sign up here.

To help you prepare effectively for the hearing, we’re hosting a virtual testimony prep workshop on Wednesday, December 3, 7–8 PM EST.

We’ll walk you through:

• What to expect at the hearing

• How to structure effective comments

• Tips for speaking confidently

• Support if you’re unsure what to say

Join us so you feel ready and supported to speak your truth, RSVP here.

Thank you for staying engaged and standing up for affordable, fair public utilities. Together, we can make sure our communities' voices are heard loud and clear.
