Vivek Ramaswamy: Matches stated direction
The campaign's plan says it would expand natural gas and new energy technology to lower electric bills. McColley voted against House Bill 6 in the Senate on July 17, 2019. It added a monthly charge to power bills for nuclear plants, and a charge on every utility's customers through 2030 for plants owned by a company that utilities formed before 1960. It also cut the state's renewable energy and energy efficiency requirements for utilities. He cosponsored House Bill 128 and voted for it on March 24, 2021. It repealed parts of House Bill 6, limited its credit payments to solar and provided refunds to customers. He cosponsored House Bill 15 and voted for it on April 30, 2025. It ended the charge for the older plants from August 14, 2025. Limit: This is his running mate's record; Ramaswamy has never held office. These laws did other things too, and we did not measure what they did to bills. The card does not test the plan's natural gas goal.
