Title: HB 2657 - Pre-paid Energy Cards
Other Titles: Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services Legislative Testimony (2006)
SRS Legislative Testimony (2006)
House Bill 2657 - Pre-paid Energy Cards
Pre-paid Energy Cards
Authors: Kansas. Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services
Mariani, Bobbi
Kansas. Legislature. House of Representatives. Utilities Committee
Issue Date: 2-Feb-2006
Description: HB 2657 proposes the use of prepaid energy cards or similar programs for consumers at high risk of having uncollectible bills. While this proposal would appear to target the "won’t pay" consumer, SRS is concerned that it will do so at the expense of the consumer that "can’t pay". Given that many low-income Kansans don’t currently have the resources to pay their heating bill in full each month and rely on some type of payment plan, this bill would place those Kansans at great risk.
