Protest NextEra at the VA Chamber of Commerce
Show us the Robo Memo
Here is our opportunity to send a message to NextEra that they are not welcome in Virginia. NextEra President and CEO John Ketchum will be speaking early at the VA Chambers’ Forum on Infrastructure. The title of the program: Power and Possibility: The “NextEra” for Dominion Energy. That is why we are starting at 8:30 AM.
We’ll be outside “greeting” forum attendees with signs and chants as they enter the convention center. Wear orange, our campaign color! Here is our chance to tell NextEra’s Ketchum to show us the Robo memo
–an internal memo on NextEra’s political misdeeds in Florida that they don’t want us to see.
WHEN: Thursday, October 15th, 8:30 AM to 9 AM
WHERE: Richmond Convention Center, 3rd and Marshall Streets, Richmond, VA 23219
Please let us know if you plan to come!
WHAT: Join us outside the Richmond Convention Center to protest the NextEra buyout of Dominion, a deal that will:
- raise our electric bills while fattening corporate profits
- pollute our air with new climate harming fracked gas plants to power data centers, and
- corrupt our politics with millions more spent on campaign contributions and lobbying
Bring a copy of your electric bill for a ceremonial shredding of our ever rising bills. Express your feelings about rising electric bills, new gas plants and the merger with your homemade signs. We’ll have some orange t-shirts and No Merger signs, but feel free to bring your own.
PARKING: Look for on street parking or park in the convention center garage for $10.
