Join We Power DC at MLK Memorial Library for our first event of the year, our campaign 101! This is the perfect event for anyone who is interested in learning about our campaign, or just wants to know more about the injustices of Pepco and learn about the public power alternative.
Meet us in conference room 401-G on Tuesday, February 24th at 6pm
Did you know that almost 25% of Pepco customers in DC are in utility debt? Or that Pepco cheated residents out of payments for community solar, and had to pay a settlement of $57 million for polluting the Anacostia River? We’re sick of this profit-driven utility screwing over the people of DC, and that’s why we’re fighting to put control of our energy utility where it belongs: in the hands of the people of DC.
We Power organizers will provide a brief presentation on the why Pepco and the investor-owned utility model are a bad deal for DC, We Power DC’s campaign for municipalization, and how you can help.
Following the presentation, we’ll be hanging out for questions and chats.
Our campaign has a very exciting year ahead: we’ll be bringing the fight for public power to DC's 2026 elections for city council and mayor. There’s never been a better time to get involved!
