Latta | L000566 | latta.house.gov | latta | https://latta.house.gov/news | scraper | Today, Congressman Bob Latta (OH-5), Chairman of the Energy Subcommittee on Energy and Commerce, released the following statement after chairing a subcommittee markup on legislation aimed at protecting Americans from rising electricity costs: “We must ensure that American families are not left footing the bill for the significant grid upgrades and increased electricity demand driven by new AI infrastructure and other large load operations. “The Ratepayer Protection Act establishes a baseline standard to protect consumers from sudden and significant rate increases associated with data centers and other high-energy users. Following today’s Energy Subcommittee markup, I am pleased the bill advanced by a vote of the subcommittee. “I urge the full Energy and Commerce Committee to take up this legislation immediately so we can move it through the House, secure Senate passage, and send it to the President’s desk to be signed into law.” The Ratepayer Protection Act passed out of the Energy Subcommittee. | 1 | 2026-06-27T06:16:17Z | 2026-06-27T06:17:30Z |
