This week, the House is expected to take up for consideration the Commodity End-User Relief Act of 2017. The measure, H.R. 238, is supported by the American Public Power Association.
In a Jan. 10 letter to House Agriculture Committee Chairman Michael Conaway, R-Texas, and Committee Ranking Democrat Collin Peterson, D-Minn., Association President and CEO Sue Kelly said the bill “will ensure that public power utilities can continue to make full use of financial tools necessary to keep electric power prices stable and affordable to our customers.”
