Plain-English Summary

This bill would likely limit or prevent utility companies from raising electricity and natural gas rates, or require them to justify rate increases to regulators before implementing them. The measure would affect both energy companies and the households and businesses that pay utility bills. The specific details of how rate increases would be restricted or reviewed depend on the bill's full text, which is currently under consideration by the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
