The proposed APNU/AFC Budget cuts and how one aspect will affect thousands

If the APNU/AFC proposed Budget cuts were effected, GPL will have no option but to implement the 19.5% tariff increase filed with the PUC in January of this year.   This will increase the cost of living of its 160,000+ customers and will have its greatest impact on the poor and vulnerable.  Businesses may also cut back on employment when faced with such an increase and this could render hundreds jobless.
