A state bill is a proposed law in a state legislature — separate from the U.S. Congress. Learn more →

Introduced May 12, 2025

Latest action (May 29, 2026) SUBSTITUTED BY A8151

Summary

This bill requires the New York Public Service Commission to include changes to service and delivery charges in its published information about average proposed rate changes for gas and electric service. Currently, the PSC publishes information about average proposed rate changes, but this bill ensures service and delivery charge changes are specifically included in that disclosure. Service and delivery charges are a component of customers' total bills separate from base rates. By requiring inclusion of these charges in the disclosure, the bill ensures customers receive complete information about all rate changes affecting their bills. This transparency requirement applies in certain specified instances when the PSC publishes rate change information.

AI-generated plain-language summary of the bill (from the OpenStates abstract — no full text available yet) — neutral, and may be imperfect.
