I'm not engage in a "conspiracy". She was appointed by Newsom in 2021. This coincides to when the prices started skyrocketing.

- jeffbee 11mo agoGet out your fork and knife I guess because the PG&E bill of the median residential account is down 10% in the last year.
- teachrdan 11mo agoSome light googling shows "The average combined [gas + electric] bill has increased from approximately $179 in 2020 to around $300 by October 2025". I'm not sure what cherry-picking of data PG&E is doing, but it does not seem that there's a real life 10% decrease in bills being paid by California consumers.
- rconti 11mo agothey mailed me a thing a few months ago saying "we're lowering rates!" and then another thing more recently saying "See, we're lowering rates and plan to lower them again soon!" I haven't actually looked at the real bills to see if it's happening, but the expectation they're setting up is that 2026 will be lower than 2025. we'll see!
