Republican Senator Hopes for Skepticism in Possible Wisconsin Utility Rate Hikes

One Wisconsin Republican state senator wants the state’s Public Service Commission to “do their job,” and question a half-billion-dollar utility rate increase. Sen. Duey Stroebel, R-Cedarburg, said on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, on Thursday that Wisconsin’s utility regulators are weighing rate hike requests for 2024 that range from 1.6% to 8.4%. The PSC will decide by December on requests from the major utilities in Wisconsin.
