Summary

**What this bill does:** This bill allocates money to fund the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) for fiscal year 2026-2027 (July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027). **Who it affects:** - The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, which regulates utilities like electric, gas, water, and telecommunications companies - Pennsylvania residents and businesses who use utility services - Utility companies operating in Pennsylvania **What would change:** The PUC would receive funding from two sources: a restricted state account and federal funds.

This money allows the PUC to continue its work overseeing utility companies, ensuring fair rates, investigating consumer complaints, and maintaining utility service standards. **Current status:** The bill has been introduced but not yet passed into law. This is a routine funding bill that keeps a state regulatory agency operating. Without such funding, the PUC couldn't perform its oversight duties, which could affect utility service quality and consumer protection.
