Congressman Kucinich (D-OH) today announced on WTAM’s Mike Trivisonno Show his intention to investigate FirstEnergy’s plan to distribute an unrequested light bulb and then charge for it. Also at issue is FirstEnergy’s plan to charge a fee for the energy that was not used by the consumer because they installed the light bulbs.
“When families do the right thing and reduce their energy use, they should get all the savings. They shouldn’t have to give it back to FirstEnergy to prop up their profits,” said Kucinich.
