So disappointing to see that @NRECANews says climate action is too hard. We rural people are and will continue to be suffering as much as anyone from utilities’ refusal to face up to the need to eliminate carbon pollution. Reforms are needed at electric co-ops.

One of the cooperative principles is "democratic member control" An NRECA task force report stated: “on balance, the task force supports permitting members to attend board of directors meetings” But Virginia's largest electric cooperative refuses to let members attend meetings

Virginia judge says @RappElecCoop, based on attitudes expressed by its CEO and board chair, "is not as cooperative as it should be." virginiamercury.com/2021/12/23/jud… via @MercuryVirginia
Great to see @NRECANews highlight @RappElecCoop history, but wish they could correctly spell Culpeper. cooperative.com/remagazine/art…
Enjoying @Ali_Christopher's new book Farm Fresh Broadband (MIT Press). Must reading for electric co-op board members. But will they read it? Some Va. electric co-ops are dragging their feet on rural broadband.
Dramatic increase in public beliefs and worries about climate change: conta.cc/3ocHNCf Wondering when Va. electric co-ops will use their magazine to educate members about climate. #climatesilence
Dramatic increase in public beliefs and worries about climate change. When will @NRECANews and its member electric co-ops educate their members about climate?: conta.cc/3ocHNCf
This wouldn't be needed if electric co-op boards were fairly elected, competent, and looking out for consumers. But sadly that is too often not the case. energynews.us/2021/09/24/com…
Electric co-op and @NRECANews leaders should read this. Electric co-ops could be doing so much to help.

I’ll be on four webcasts/podcasts this week to talk about the release of #FarmFreshBroadband and #broadband #policy! Monday @Theteamatx, Tuesday @BroadbandAction, Thursday @connectednation, Friday the Numb Podcast! Can’t wait!! @mitpress #newbook #bookrelease #writer #author
Where are Virginia's electric co-ops on this? They don't take seriously the cooperative principle of education.
Must reading for rural electric co-op leaders. Coming soon.

The sorry state of supposed "democratic governance" at some Virginia electric co-ops. virginiamercury.com/2021/09/03/ref… via @MercuryVirginia
Don't assume Virginia electric co-ops are democratically controlled. powerforthepeopleva.com/2021/09/02/you…
Most Virginia electric co-ops unwisely locked themselves into decades of dirty expensive power from @ODECooperative. This shows a possible path out of that wilderness. insideclimatenews.org/news/30082021/…
It’s worth remembering that US electric co-ops are skilled practitioners of climate silence.

Tonight, I was proud to cast my vote in support of the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. John Lewis put his life on the line to protect the right to vote. This is a fitting legacy to him as we combat efforts to suppress the votes and voices of our fellow citizens.
Would love to see Congress take a close look at electric co-op abuses in VA, AL, GA and across US. How ‘bout it @RepSpanberger? We need real co-op democracy.
