NextEra wants to buy Dominion Energy for $67 billion, and the State Corporation Commission will decide whether the deal goes through. On Tuesday, Nov. 17, the SCC begins its evidentiary hearing on the deal. This is one last chance to stand up to NextEra.

Residents across Virginia are raising concerns about what this deal could mean for:

• Electric bills for families already struggling with rising costs

• Accountability if a Florida corporation takes control of Virginia's largest electric utility

• Data centers, and whether families will be stuck paying for the power plants and power lines built to serve Big Tech

• Local communities and landowners affected by new power plants, transmission lines, pipelines, and other energy infrastructure

• Clean energy and Virginia’s ability to build an affordable, reliable energy system that answers to Virginians

• Corporate influence and transparency as regulators consider a deal that could shape Virginia's energy future for decades

Schedule

• 9:00 a.m.: Rally outside the SCC, 1300 E. Main St.

• 10:00 a.m.: SCC hearing begins

• 11:15 a.m.: Rally at the Bell Tower

• 12:30 p.m.: Lunch and program at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church

There’s no public comment at this hearing, so showing up is how we’re heard. A big crowd outside the SCC sends a clear message to the commissioners.

Breakfast and lunch are provided. Coming from Roanoke, Danville, Fairfax or the Norfolk area? Choose your bus when you RSVP. Need a ride? Use our carpool sheet: https://groupcarpool.com/t/mqgrd5
