Why This Matters

This bill aims to control how much money utility executives can earn in bonuses by tying it to customer rate increases. It ensures that if customers face higher bills, executives won't receive large bonuses.

If you are a customer of a utility, this bill could mean fairer pricing and less excessive pay for executives.
