APGA Requests Systems to Sign the 2021 LIHEAP Funding Open Letter to Congress

By Michael Todd Brady posted 01-02-2020 12:47 PM

  
APGA is requesting that member systems sign on to an Open Letter to Congressional Appropriations Committees from the National Energy and Utility Affordability Coalition (NEUAC), which requests that Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) funding for fiscal year (FY) 2021 be made a priority as they draft the Labor-Health and Human Services-Education Appropriations Bill. Please note that APGA has already signed this letter. NEUAC is the result of a 2013 merger between the National Fuel Funds Network (NFFN) and the National Low Income Energy Consortium (NLIEC).

APGA continues to support a full funding level of $5.1 billion for LIHEAP. Systems can find and sign the letter here, and there will be a web form to walk through the process. APGA will keep members informed of any developments.
