NAG website: NAG- https://www.naghartford.org/ Other groups are GTA860 and Powerup CT

On a Sunday at noon…so you’re protesting in front of a nearly empty building minus cleaning crew and/or security staff.

Clearly will be very effective.

Antitrust laws don't apply to utilities.

Gotta get the timing and demands right, but kudos for getting things going!

Hearings will be coming up. Might be better time.

We need a list of bidders that submit to Eversource and to Avantgrid and to the cooperatives/ municipals. Might not show the bids, but will show the mix of companies - which ones are bidding at Eversource but not at Avangrid, etc We need to drill down on these suppliers too.

I’ll try to find that

So this is already up and running? Ok. Well have to go for it then, but they might want to take out the antitrust thing, it doesn’t apply. Maybe something about breaking up Eversource ( so coops and munis can run things) but antitrust doesn’t apply. -

The point is to call for regulations.

Exactly my thought.

Hm, same folks protesting rate hikes strangled hydrogen fuel cell energy in CT which led to...rate hikes. You can't have both "green" energy and cheap energy. Pick one.

lol MA we just took our hikes up the ass. Good to see CT fighting them.

But congress needs to insulate their pockets. Think about the congress!

Protesting is more of a media publicity thing, so if the media there, it’s worth it.

Maybe more people can come on a Sunday at noon? If so, then great.

Build it outside of our cities. We have enough pollution. Farmington can take the plant.

It’s been effective before.

They hit you guys with a 20% hike. We are getting it worse. Y’all should organize too.

Pretty much. We’ve protested at homes of state lawmakers too but don’t invite media.

Looking to take the Eversource caucus out of office. If you know someone running, let them make noise.

Has it? I see no change in behavior or protocol from eversource, PURA, or the bought and paid for politicians. So how has it been effective in the past?

One could even say they’ve gotten worse and more brazen in their disregard with PURA coming out and saying their reviews of eversource price hikes are administrative and they have no actual power.

How does this get upvotes? “Green” hydrogen is a scam promoted by fossil fuel interests

Am I the only one that finds it funny to see a group called NAG host a protest?

They are always held either then, or around 1pm on a Tuesday when anyone that actually has a financial interest is at work.

We were told by Lou rinaldi/ctmmpdata/gykoru to not trust you. Why is that? I won’t show for that reason

This is the first step. This is not the entire action.

Thank God. One less person security has to remove.

I’m not using my PTO and wouldn’t expect anyone to do so either. The media publicity should get things rolling.

Side note, you know you’re not welcome at our events cause you were deemed a safety risk when you threatened women during cannabis events.

Me? I didn’t threaten anyone. You make up a lot things. Stop that, it’s not healthy

Don’t make me go to twitter and start posting screenshots.

I already took a screenshot of most of your posts.

Please do. I’m not Lou, didn’t threaten anyone, and you know that. Stop it, while your ahead 🤣

You arguing with Lou

Wow a screenshot! That’s good and it will show that I called him a snitch and used ur twitter and ig to prove that. Now, where did I threaten a woman or are you a liar? I’m gonna guess LIAR

You know they’re in Christina’s inbox and mine. You need to make friends.

I’m just gonna keep responding to bump the post. I’m probably your entire life right now.

Wow I argued with him. That a threat to u? No? Are u a liar? YES!! 🤣

NIMBYism truly is a bipartisan cause and not in a good way.

When you threatened us protesting at the capital. So he’s a snitch but you trust him. Make it make sense. This is why we just had an event and you weren’t invited.

Nope, your just pathetic wanting to be a TRAP QUEEN 😂

Yeah. We get all the factories, plants and pollution in the city. Of course another plant was going to be blocked.

Who’s me? I’m all over fb, if, twitter. Tell me who i am

Honestly, there's enough mercury contamination from old hat factories in Bridgeport and Danbury that it could be built in any of the vacant contaminated lots and abandoned contaminated buildings. There's absolutely no need to put a power generation facility on clean ground.

And I changed state law to do it. My google search results prove it 🫡

I’m gonna give you promo? This is why you don’t get invited to events anymore.

I actually was invited in a FB group. I just won’t show up. I’ve never shown up to protest, ever and never will. You have no idea who this is 🤣

And what’s the name of my canna group? Asking cause we both know you lie.

Side note, thank you for bumping the post.

So that's why Bernie is president right?

That was never gonna happen.

People should know when they're conquered

Hey, solar sales people. I know a great place where you can talk to some prospective clients....

Im glad someone is organizing. In Rhode island a 40% increase was approved.

Why would you say that

I’m saying I use enough PTO for this and refuse to give up holidays with my kids. It’s the end of the year and a new bucket starts in a few weeks. If you want to plan one during the week, I’m happy to repost it for you.

Except NAG is a group that’s been around for years and this isn’t dedicated to just rising energy costs. You’re welcome to use it.

LOL! WHY? Their prices reflect their COSTS and PUC approved profit.

What do you expect them to do? Sell you power for less than it costs?!?

They aren't a monopoly. They're a state regulated utility.

What you should be complaining about is 'why are costs so high?'

EVERY single reason is a democrat failure. If it's any consolation, this has been coming for a decade. Silly you for not being aware enough to figure it out.

Here's an option: Cork the Iroquois line feeding Long Island and use that gas in CT, specifically, Mystic.

Let NY figure it out. Those fucks are why we (all of New England) don't have access to plentiful and cheap natural gas.

Biden should already repeal the Jones act in New England and that’s no secret. However, it’s time to put a stop to rubber stamping rate increases.

LOL! I was one of the 40,000 disgruntled CT Yankees that protested Wiecker's income tax.

Lotta damn good that did. So, no.

Yes. H2 is even more stupid than corn ethanol for fuel oxygenate.

Politicians have discovered they can create whole new constituencies by buying the votes of corn farmers and wind mill developers and solar panel installers by making access to things like nuclear and natural gas 'hard' or even 'impossible.'

You were doing God’s work at the time. I think I remember a song about a run in Weicker or Rowland had with a reindeer as a child. 🤔

They have the Politicians in their pockets!!!

I can't promise to attend but if I don't you have my support

Lol wasting your time. I’m moving out of state. Eversource is just legal extortion.

Not just for NE. For PR, the USVI, HI and AK, along with the Marianas

It's a law. He can't just wave it away.

Those price increases are driven by the cost they have to pay. What are they going to do? Provide you power for less than they pay?

Agreed with all, I’m glad you mentioned all of them but that’s a different fight for another day.

But he can exempt New England and I believe it would help.
