A legislative plan to raise bills for customers of PG&E and other utility behemoths in California in a quest to combat wildfires — and bankroll other projects — has been torpedoed in the state Legislature.
The measure failed to receive a vote in the state Senate on the final day of the 2019-2020 legislative session, a marathon of votes and maneuvers that ended early Tuesday morning.
