Don't shut off utilities in a crisis!
We are currently experiencing a global health crisis, which has serious economic effects for people across the country. Do not turn off essential utilities, as it will put more lives at risk.
Why is this important?
It is our responsibility to come together to protect the lives of those around us by limiting the spread of this disease as much as possible and caring for the tens of millions whose health, jobs, families and communities will be impacted.
Utility companies must not cut off essential resources including water, power, and gas to ensure everyone has the ability to take care of themselves and their families.
There are thousands of people already hit with the financial burden of missing work for a quarantine, to care for a loved one or children when school is cancelled, being laid off, and many more as this crisis grows.
COVID-19 has revealed the interconnectedness of our country and our world -- that the health and well being of one is intimately bound to the health and well being of all. Now, we must rise to the occasion and care for each other and support one another.
