I wanted to follow up my Thursday post on New Jersey’s pathetic power grid with an interesting tidbit:
The Assembly Telecommunications and Utilities Committee has met ONCE in 2020.
–
The date was Thursday, February 20, 2020.
A handful of proposed laws were considered including one which “requires telecommunications companies to provide prorated refunds for service outages of longer than 72 hours.” It hasn’t gotten a floor vote as of this writing.
Trenton’s priorities? Not your priorities.
I thought you should know, particularly if you’re one of the 300,000+ who were STILL without power as of Thursday evening.
