PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • December 6, 2022
For years the Our Powerorganization, an experienced group of legislators, economists and electrical engineers, diligently researched, studied and discovered a way forward that will drastically drop electric rates, move Maine quickly to meet its climate goals and achieve this at a cost of billions below CMP’s plans. (What plan is that?) With the CMP-backed Maine Affordable Energyinitiative, it is now certain that the bully will be rearing its ugly head. Money is funneling in from CMP and its Spanish owners to do whatever is needed to squash the Our Power initiative. It’s no wonder that we’ll all receive huge rate hikes on our electric bills. We can expect millions spent on lies, misinformation and fear-mongering from the CMP bully. ~ Clifford Krolick, Parsonsfield
