Philip Mattera – Research Director of Good Jobs First & Director of the Corporate Research Project: “The latest expansion of Violation Tracker includes more than 2,000 consumer protection and safety cases brought by state public utility commissions across the country over the past two decades. We’ve published a report called Policing the Grid which analyzes the enforcement actions. Among the key findings: California accounts for well over half of the $13 billion in fines and settlements collected by the states, largely because of $5 billion paid by Pacific Gas & Electric for causing wildfires and other offenses.”
