Despite electricity prices rising twice as fast as inflation this year, Ann Wagner voted to raise energy bills on hardworking Americans today.
House Republicans pushed through an extreme funding bill that slashes $4.4 million from Missouri for programs designed to lower utility bills for American families.
The program most hurt by Wagner and Republicans’ spending bill is the Weatherization Assistance Program, which reduces energy costs for families through energy efficiency.
REMINDER: Under Wagner’s Big, Ugly Law alone, Missourians would see a spike of $637 in annual energy bills.
DCCC Spokesperson Lindsay Reilly:
“Ann Wagner has now voted TWICE this year to raise energy costs on hardworking Missourians. Her vote is both political malpractice and incredibly cruel to millions of households struggling to pay their bills. As working families across the country see their utility bills go up and up, the DCCC will make sure everyone knows Wagner is to blame when they vote in 2026.” |
