Glenn English: “The more than 300,000 rural electric co-op customers in my state are at risk of unacceptable rate hikes.”

So I guess my common sense question is, does it make sense to go forward with this legislation at all if what we are in the end accomplishing is simply transferring to countries elsewhere in the world, who I don't think have any intention…

That is fairness, that is what is right, and I think that is what most citizens in this country expect to be done.

This thing is too important not to get right.

I agree, Mr. Markey, that without question, we need to move forward and to improve the electric utility system of this country.
