Maryland ratepayers have already seen exorbitant increases in their electric bills recently, and those increases will pale in comparison to the ones they will see when they are paying the bill for the Governor’s new policies. Congressman Harris Statement: “Hard-working Marylanders have already seen a 24% increase in their electric rates thanks to the failed energy policies of the Biden administration. In an effort to advance his potential presidential candidacy, Governor Moore has proposed quadrupling down on the expensive and harmful Maryland offshore wind plans. In addition to the added cost of his new proposal to Marylanders’ monthly electric bills, there is now bipartisan opposition going forward with even the current plans to industrialize the offshore areas with 900-foot-tall windmills that may be causing the death and stranding of dozens of whales and marine mammals off the Atlantic Coast. We should never allow foreign companies to control our energy supply - much less harm our offshore marine environment doing it. It’s just plain and simple a bad, expensive idea.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T23:30:02Z |
