The following press release, from CleanChoiceEnergy.com, discussed a new poll of 700 Virginia adults by SurveyUSA. As you can see, the vast majority of Virginians want the freedom to choose clean energy and also to choose who supplies their homes with electricity. AND the vast majority of Virginians prefer that the state move towards more *clean* energy, NOT towards more dirty fossil fuels.  Attention policymakers! 😉

Super-Majority of Virginia Residents Want the Freedom to Choose Clean Energy

New Poll Shows Bi-Partisan Support for Virginia HB 2048 to Restore Virginian’s Right to Select Their Clean Energy Supplier

Richmond, VA. Jan. 25, 2021 — A new poll shows that a super-majority of Virginia residents want the freedom to choose their energy supplier, choose clean energy, and want more renewable energy to be generated in the Commonwealth of Virginia. SurveyUSA interviewed more than 500 Virginia adults who rent or own their home, pay their utility bills, and have at least some input on their utility company’s household choice. Support for consumers being able to choose their renewable energy provider cuts across the typical partisan divide. The vast majority of Republicans and Democrats agree that they want the freedom to choose their energy provider. The poll bolsters the case for HB2048, a bill sponsored by Delegate Jeff Bourne (D-Richmond, 71st District), that would restore Virginians’ ability to select their own 100% renewable energy provider.
