NYPIRG: Take a look at this momentum [re: Stop the Cuomo Tax/No Nuclear Bailout]

Below is an Oct. 14th update from NYPIRG (New York Public Interest Group) re: Stopthecuomotax.org:

We're just getting started with our statewide push to Stop the Cuomo Tax and end the nuclear bailout that would cost New Yorkers nearly $8 billion in higher electricity rates. But already we've seen incredible momentum out of the gate. This week organizers staged a protest outside of Cuomo's parade for Columbus Day, and we're planning more events to increase our visibility in the coming days...

Already we're gaining a lot of traction around our campaign with thousands of you signed up to stop the Cuomo Tax. Check out some of the media coverage from the last weeks:

Journal News: Cuomo Wrong on Nuclear Plant Bailout
http://www.lohud.com/story/opinion/contributors/2016/10/12/cuomo-nuclear-plant-bailout/91945160/

New York’s nuclear bailout is merely the latest example of business getting off scot-free while taxpayers pick up multi-billion-dollar tabs. Gov. Andrew Cuomo is planning to bail out the aging and money-losing Ginna, FitzPatrick and Nine Mile Point nuclear plants, some of America’s oldest nuclear plants owned by Exelon and Entergy, with nearly $8 billion of New Yorkers’ hard-earned money (and another $2.8 billion if energy prices fall).

The tab for one of the largest corporate bailouts in the state's history will be picked up by every New Yorker with an electric bill.

Blair Horner, NYPIRG's legislative director, said ratepayers shouldn't be asked to pick up the tab for the aging plants, particularly as the state and nation shift toward renewable energy sources like wind and solar.

"This is like subsidizing the horse-and-buggy industry while Henry Ford is rolling cars off the assembly line," Horner said at a news conference Wednesday near the state Capitol.
