We thought Texas already had its own power generating facilities. Is it for natural gas gas and oi?. There was a spot on the tv news about it, but we don't recall. I forgot that you live in Texas! (g) We would have to vote for de-regulation, and I can't imagine that it would pass after the California disaster. I believe one of our energy companies was forced to sell to California. Our natural gas bill went up because of it. And the company that sold the gas to California worried about getting paid. We are in dire straights because we haven't had sufficient rain and there is little snow in the mountains. We depend on the snow pack in the mountains for our water, and since it hasn't snowed, it is predicted our electricity bills will go up 100% by this summer or next fall. I forget the exact date. Not only will our electric bills go up but so will our water bills, and last summer I had one water bill that was over $300.00 for a two month period, and I didn't even try to stay on top of watering the lawn or plants, although most plants survived. The global warming situation is very serious. And Bush is not likely to take it seriously. I see Norton got appointed. Even Canada has now said that development in the Alaska Refuge area would be a disaster, according to what my husband heard.
