Why were they the CPUC auditing records they get paid to do this! breakupCPUCnow!

Yes, important word in this headline”MAY’ penalize. If they do it won’t matter because the CPUC will let PG&E raise rates to more than make up for it.

What a surprise?

Because of trump, it is good to see America doing the right thing once again by investigating corrupt heads in the society.

If PGE4Me is penalized, they won't be too concerned. They will just pass the $$$ penalty on to the consumer. SDGE has a practice of doing just that. One energy company to learn from another (if they haven't already)! PGE SDGE

Falsifying records and getting people killed. Serious.

THE ONES RESPONSIBLE NEED TO GO TO JAIL!! SO SICK OF CORPORATIONS GETTING AWAY WITH MURDER!!!

May penalize? Guess it depends on how much they are willing to slide under the table, lol.

Good, if they falsified records, they deserve to be held accountable.

Ca? Shithole state, right?

May penalize?

And why didn't the PUC discover this proactively, rather than reactively?

Do you plan to report on thousands of texts wiped clear by Robert Mueller off of cell phones before turning them over to inspector general? Wonder Why He did that? May not fit your narrative huh CNN?

Breaking News: California puts a 10% tax on Oxygen.

Throw the book at them

In California? Hard to believe

$PCG is going to be a good buy pretty soon. Keep an eye on it. PG&E is too big to fail.

No they won’t do a dam thing to them! The PUC is so crooked it’s pathetic! They are all paid off and will do what ever PG&E wants them to do. Happens every year! They all should be put in prison for extortion!

California Girds for Higher Power Prices From PG&E After FiresThe average PG&E power bill would jump by 17% if the tens of billions of dollars in claims related to California's wildfires were passed on to ratepayers, one analyst estimates Kick 'em while they're down? PG&E is corrupt. Witnessed them bribing an energy “watchdog” nonprofit. CA is just as corrupt if it makes taxpayers fund PGE’s negligence. You know why? Because more and more people are upgrading their homes to solar and they are losing money. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. They should get in the solar panel business. Lease them out to customers that can’t afford the expense, like a lease to own.

How is this about Trump, because I'm ready to explode! There is where Trump's wish to have as few regulations as possible is not an act of giving freedom back to the people. Regulations are there for a reason, often to protect us from people who do not follow the law and endanger us daily. Fantastic photograph b/w Kudos to the photographer
