Seniors Seek Relief as Gas Bills Rise in Huron County
About 60 seniors and retired teachers pressed State Rep. Marie Tansey and State Sen. Ron Nabakowski at the Huron County Administration Building on rising utility costs. Nabakowski said a two year credit bill for elderly gas and electric bills could pass next month at a $60 million cost, with study of rates and a need for future subsidies. Critics argued the plan discriminates against those just above the income line and urged mechanisms like loans for insulation. Tansey opposed letting utilities lend money, while attendees sought pension boosts and relief for spouses in nursing homes.
