New CUB Poll: 84% Oppose Exelon Nuclear Bailout
Friday, Mar 11, 2016 - Posted by Advertising Department [The following is a paid advertisement.] Nearly 1,900 people responded to the recent Citizen’s Utility Board survey about Exelon’s push to bailout its nuclear plants. Here is how CUB put it:
Should Illinois give unprofitable nuclear plants more money if it helps fight climate change? No: 1,583 (about 84 percent) Yes: 298 (about 16 percent)” Illinois still has no budget, the state’s finances and services are in shambles, the social safety net is being decimated but Exelon STILL wants the Legislature to pass a huge BAILOUT. Just say no to the Exelon Bailout. BEST Coalition is a 501C4 nonprofit group of dozens of business, consumer and government groups, as well as large and small businesses.
