Most of us only interact with the energy system when our monthly bill shows up in the mail or when the power goes out, and often that’s painful. But we all deserve energy that’s affordable, reliable and sustainable. At We The People Michigan, we’ve learned that UPPCO, WE Energies and other utilities are owned by investment firms, and that means they’re driven to create profit for others, not take care of our community or the planet. These utilities have been using their profits to buy political influence and rig the system in their favor. Join us to learn about how we can intervene in the current energy system and pave the way for the future we deserve. Our work is being led by residents from the central and western UP.
