LIPA Commission Public Hearings
The Commission on the Future of the Long Island Power Authority (LIPA) has issued its draft report to offer different pathways to restructure our utility to make it more reliable, affordable, and democratic. This means getting rid of PSEG and ending the current public-private model. Public hearings will be held to get further input from community members so we can finalize the plan. Our input will help the Commission determine the specific steps to revamp our utility into a true public power authority. Here is our Guide to the Final Round of Hearings.
