Governors Launch Energy Choice Coalition

Jeff Landry (Louisiana) and Chris Sununu (New Hampshire) recently unveiled a new coalition to support smart state energy policies, including principally the policy of energy choice. According to the press release, “The Governors’ Coalition for Energy Choice will help state leaders formulate smart energy policies that will benefit working families, businesses, and our communities.” To date, governors from the following ten states have officially joined the coalition: Arkansas, Indiana, Georgia, Louisiana, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Virginia, and Wyoming.

Residential homes, commercial buildings, and industrial facilities have long utilized a variety of energy sources, including propane, to meet their unique heating and energy needs. State energy choice protections promote fairness and competition in the marketplace, which benefits all energy consumers. NPGA will continue to support state policies that safeguard consumer access to reliable and affordable energy options.

Additional information on energy choice can be found under the My State section of NPGA’s website.  For more information, contact NPGA’s Director of State Affairs, Jacob Peterson.
