To: Honorable Ben Hueso, Chair, Senate Committee on Energy, Utilities, and Communications

Subject: SB 222 (Dodd) – Water Rate Assistance Program

Letter excerpt:

The undersigned organizations respectfully write to express our oppose-unless amended position on SB 222, a bill that would create a water affordability program. While there could be a bill written that would create a reasonable, efficient and effective statewide water low-income rate assistance (water LIRA) program, the April 5 version of SB 222 needs significant work to meet those standards.
