GRASSROOTS EFFORTS

Numerous energy industry-related bills are introduced by legislators at the state and national level every session. Before those bills are passed into legislation, SCAEC, along with other electric cooperatives throughout Arkansas and the U.S., educate legislators on the possible effects of those bills on the utility grid infrastructure, the environment, and the energy cost for their constituents. From time to time, we ask our Member-Owners to take action in letting legislators know how an introduced bill could significantly raise energy costs. As members and owners, we understand the cooperative difference. Standing on the seven cooperative principles, we encourage member-owners to come together to combat the challenges we face locally. Our perspectives are important and deserve to be heard. South Central Arkansas Electric Cooperative encourages you to use your voice for good.
