But when private corporations control utilities, maximizing profits is the sole priority as they enact cost-cutting measures that hike up utility rates, worsen service, and threaten jobs. The COVID-19 pandemic only exacerbated disparities in utility access as communities who couldn't afford utility bills faced shut-offs at the height of the pandemic. Congress is considering a transformative resolution that would declare that access to affordable, quality utility services is a human right for all. The Human Right to Utility Services resolution will affirm that utility services should be held under public control to ensure that utility services are accessible to all and prevent predatory, punitive measures like utility shut-offs and tax foreclosures. Join us in calling on Congress to recognize the human right to utility services.
