Tonight is a major moment in our fight against AEP Ohio’s proposed rate increase.

The PUCO Public Hearing is tonight, Thursday, Dec 4 at 6 PM
📍 Columbus Main Library – 96 S. Grant Ave.

⭐️ CSU team will be there at 5 PM

We need a strong community turnout to show PUCO that Columbus is watching and that residents cannot absorb yet another rate hike. Your presence – even if you don’t plan to testify – makes a real impact.

Continue to share the petition widely — every signature strengthens our collective voice.

Check out our op-ed in the Columbus Dispatch. It breaks down the major flaws in AEP Ohio’s case: they already make enough money to fund infrastructure improvements. This rate increase would shift the burden of rising electricity costs – driven by data centers and their own poor planning – onto you.

Columbus Stand Up! is powered entirely by community donations and volunteer energy. If you believe in the work we’re doing, from fighting unfair rate hikes to hosting community dinners and supporting our neighbors, please consider making a contribution today.

Every donation, no matter the amount, helps us keep organizing and showing up where it counts.

Together, we can show AEP Ohio and PUCO that Columbus stands united against unfair rate hikes.

Thank you for continuing to show up for our community.
