The green scam is back on in Virginia it seems.....Costing Virginians more in electricity costs.

Small wonder Spanberger's approval numbers and the overall dem poll numbers continue to fall.



Virginia is poised to reenter the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative this summer, a move that could again add a monthly charge to electricity customers’ bills as utilities resume buying carbon credits.

Former Gov. Glenn Youngkin removed Virginia from the agreement in 2023, calling it a hidden tax on ratepayers. The program costs an estimated $2 a month for residential customers in Dominion’s territory. When RGGI was officially paused, customers were paying about $4 due to the stop and start of the court process. A court later ruled that the removal was unlawful, and when he took office, Attorney General Jay Jones canceled the appeal of that ruling.

The cost of the credits has increased since the state last participated in RGGI, but it is not yet clear how that could financially impact ratepayers.

In before....It's only $4....One cent is too much extra to pay at the hands of the dems.
