Do you have a smart meter installed by RI Energy? They’re intended to be more efficient, but you probably don't realize they simultaneously collect a lot of personal data about you + your habits based on your energy usage.

We're calling for transparent, enforceable privacy + data usage protections.

This letter was sent to RI Energy's Director of Government Affairs regarding the ongoing implementation of "smart meters" and privacy concerns about collection, usage, and storage of people's data.

The White House confirms Trump officials tried to convince Lauren Boebert today to drop her support for the Epstein files discharge petition.

Once Adelita Grijalva is sworn in this afternoon, majority support will be reached on that discharge petition in the House.
