Democrats Pass Controversial Energy Legislation

Well Pritzker and the Democrats just passed a bill to “make your power bill cheaper”. But let’s be honest — who really believes that anymore?

We’ve heard this before. Every time they’ve passed one of these so-called “clean energy” bills, they’ve promised us it would save money. And every single time, our bills went up. Don’t take my word for it, look at your own electric bill.

Back in 2019, electricity cost around 8.6 cents per kilowatt-hour. Today, it’s around 23 cents during the summer. That’s nearly triple in just a few years!

Those lines at the bottom of the back page that are impossible to read is where the state has packed in all its taxes, fees, and clean energy mandates. Right now, those make up about 13 to 18 percent of your electric bill. Think about that. In a “deregulated” state, nearly a fifth of what you pay each month is because of government mandates.

So, the next time you open your electric bill and wonder why it’s so high, remember this: it’s not your utility company — it’s Pritzker and the Democrats in Springfield.

Because when they tell you this new bill will save you money, just ask yourself the same question I do…

Who really believes that anymore?
