FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE- Speaker Certifies Power Credits as Emergency Measure

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (February 21, 2024 – Hagåtña, Guam) – Ahead of today’s session, Speaker Therese M. Terlaje certified that emergency conditions exist to allow the body to immediately consider granting another $100 power credit to GPA customers to alleviate rising consumer prices.

According to Speaker Terlaje : “Despite the lack of proper motion by the sponsor and  lack of a committee report, the people of Guam need urgent relief from the steep increase in GPA power bills which threatens their welfare and threatens to exacerbate poverty on Guam. We confirmed yesterday that there are now sufficient excess funds to cover the cost of an additional $100 energy credit for residential customers.”
