West Virginians for Energy Freedom

APRIL 2024 | NEWSLETTER

Welcome to the April edition of West Virginians for Energy Freedom's newsletter!

We are excited to announce the location of our next Community Action Event and also to share some great new ways that you can get involved—some of which even come with a paycheck! 😉 So read on, fellow energy freedom advocates! We also want to give a big ‘thank you’ to all who decided to take action last month—from signing petitions and attending events to having open and honest conversations with other West Virginians about the difficulties of monopolized energy. Even an eclipse can’t dim the passion of supporters like you! 🌞🌚

Buckhannon Community Action Event (Upshur County Public Library)

May 15 | 5:00–6:00 PM

Calling all Buckhannon residents and surrounding neighbors! 📢 We would love to see you at our next Community Action Event. This event provides an introductory-level breakdown of how our energy system works: where our electricity comes from, who the decision makers are, how different stakeholders interact with each other, why it’s important for us to speak up and advocate for ourselves when faced with energy issues that impact our communities; and, of course, how to do so! We also provide our attendees with handouts to learn more about interim solutions to procure lower electricity bills, like solar and energy efficiency, and the opportunity to sign up for more in-depth webinars to learn about these options.

Register today!

Share your story!

For many of us, statewide electricity costs have been rising at an unsustainable rate over the last decade—with no end in sight. Even though it’s a common struggle, it can be easy to feel alone in it. That’s why it’s important for us to have open conversations about how these hefty bills are impacting us. The time is now for us West Virginians to speak up.

If you have a story to tell and are looking for an outlet to do so, please consider submitting a quick video using the link below. We are hoping to collect hundreds of these videos over time to shed some light on how critical this issue really is.

Note: We will never make your video public without your explicit permission.
