RSVP for Zoom link     Join the Upgrade Maryland campaign to learn how you can advocate for transitioning off of gas without anymore delays.  Since 2010, BGE gas delivery rates have tripled, far exceeding inflation. While they’ve sought to justify many of these increases with investments in costly infrastructure projects, the lion’s share has gone to their highly criticized gas pipeline replacement program - a program that analysis suggests is prioritizing profits and gas system expansion over safety and consumer benefits.
