The Maine Legislature passed L.D. 1708, An Act to Create the Pine Tree Power Company, in a final votelast Wednesday. Now, Gov. Mills has the historic opportunity to provide Mainers with a say in how and where they get their electricity. The people of Maine deserve this choice. When compared against other types of utilities, as a whole, public power consistently excels in the areas most important to customers: cost, reliability and environmental stewardship. ~ Joy Ditto, American Public Power Association
