Sen. Whitehouse: Trump Wants High Electricity Prices So His Corrupt Fossil Fuel Donors Can Profit

‘It’s a huge outflow of dollars from regular American families pockets through their electric bills’

EXCERPT:

WHITEHOUSE: “What you have is those expensive fossil fuel units driving up consumer costs, not just for their electrons, but in most grids, every electron goes to the highest unit cost price. So it's a huge outflow of dollars from regular American families' pockets through their electric bills, billions of dollars, and it is landing in the pockets of Trump's corrupt fossil fuel donors through those marginal units that are now running. It is a huge money pump scheme that is right now banging American families' costs in order to service Trump's corrupt fossil fuel donors.”
