SAN DIEGO— Today, Assemblymember Akilah Weber, M.D. (D-San Diego) issued the following statement regarding the SDG&E rate increase:

“The latest report from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics confirms what my constituents have been saying, San Diegans are paying the highest price per kilowatt in the country. After a briefing by SDG&E on Wednesday evening on the reasons for the rate increase in San Diego, I am committed to working with my colleagues in the Legislature to find solutions to the rising cost to alleviate the financial burden on consumers. We must bring all stakeholders to the table to remedy this catastrophe affecting families and community members’ ability to keep their lights on and cover other household expenses.”
