Introduced by Rep. Tristan Rader, the proposal targets the growing frustration of residents hit by frequent, long-lasting outages, holding utilities accountable for the real financial toll. Credits kick in after 16 hours for minor outages, while major disruptions trigger faster payouts. Customers could receive up to $600 for general losses and full reimbursement for refrigerated prescriptions—with no cost passed on to ratepayers. FirstEnergy remains silent on voluntary compensation, making this legislation potentially the only path to relief for those bearing the brunt of grid failures.
