Dear Friend,

Today marks a historic moment in our fight against corruption in Ohio. Former FirstEnergy CEO Chuck Jones and Senior VP Michael Dowling are facing federal racketeering charges <[link removed]> for their alleged roles in the $60 million bribery scandal that shook our state.

Could these indictments be the reason why Governor Mike DeWine finally came out publicly against the OVEC coal plant bailouts <[link removed]>??While his sudden revelation comes six years and millions of ratepayer dollars late, we will hold him to it.

This is your victory. Your letters, calls, donations, petition signatures and attention helped expose this massive scheme that led to the corrupt HB6 bailout.? Now, finally, federal authorities are charging the bribers, not just the bribe-takers.

But our work isn't done.

More than ever, we need to ensure this kind of corporate corruption never happens again in Ohio. But even as we celebrate this breakthrough, we know that the Ohio legislature is quietly crafting another massive energy overhaul bill for 2025 <[link removed]>.

The final actions of the last general assembly - declining to vote on bipartisan energy efficiency and community solar bills - suggest that we will have our work cut out for us to make sure consumers benefit from new legislation.?We will keep you informed about what's in it and how you can make your voice heard.

Thanks to supporters like you, we raised $47,023 toward our $50,000 year-end fundraising goal. Can you help us close the final $3,000 gap? Your donation of $25, $50, or $100 today will help us start 2025 strong and ready to hold power accountable. >>





<[link removed]>CONTRIBUTE TODAY! <[link removed]>

Your contribution will help us hit the ground running when this massive energy bill drops.



With gratitude,


Ohio Citizen Action
