Politician's fallacy: "we have to do something, this is something, so we have to do this".
I don't see any argument so far why nationalizing PG&E is going to improve anything. It's already heavily regulated. Same bad decisions PG&E management took would be taken by State PG&E management for the same reasons.
> If you have better ideas for how to fix PG&E you should contact your representatives or perhaps start a ballot initiative.
This is another fallacy, for which I don't have a name. It goes like this: I assume my solution fixes the problem. In order to be allowed to poke holes in my solution, you must present another solution that you can prove fixes the problem, or your criticism is invalid.
