Hinchey Opposes New Central Hudson Rate Hike Request
August 2, 2024
KINGSTON, NY – Senator Michelle Hinchey issued the following statement in response to a new rate proposal issued by Central Hudson on August 1, 2024:
This is a slap in the face to Hudson Valley families. On the very day our bills went up, Central Hudson is already requesting another rate hike. After being denied their full rate request, this is Central Hudson’s way of trying to fool customers and the PSC into getting what they originally wanted — and slowly over time, maybe even more. Central Hudson consistently fails to be a good community partner and show even a modicum of basic decency or sound business ethics. We will fight this every step of the way.”
