Governor Glenn Youngkin Praises Passage of Energy Regulatory Reform

RICHMOND, VA – Governor Glenn Youngkin today released the following statement praising the passage of energy regulatory reform:

“Since Day One, I have prioritized lowering the cost of living for all Virginians and the cost of doing business in Virginia. The All-of-the-Above Energy Plan I laid out last year made affordability, reliability, and consumer protection key priorities, and today we took a big step forward on behalf of all Virginians,” said Governor Glenn Youngkin. “I applaud the legislators who took the lead on writing and negotiating this landmark bill, which will save customers money on their monthly bills, restore the independent oversight of the State Corporation Commission, and support the long-term stability of Virginia's largest electric utility. Today, the General Assembly came together and put Virginians first.”
