The rapidly growing cost of living from double-digit inflation has particularly affected poor families who are often forced to choose between the rent, buying groceries or paying their utility bills. It’s estimated that today 1 in 6 Americans is behind on their utility bill payments, and that figure is expected to worsen. Meanwhile, climate change will likely just increase the year-round demand for electricity.
Jimmy discusses the inadequate measures being taken to help Americans who are falling behind on their utility bills as we send pallets of cash to Ukraine.

Stop with the evenhandedness Jimmy. Trump didn’t make life more difficult. Democrats did.
It's almost as if the attack on fossil fuels has consequences. Perhaps we keep using traditional fuel sources while transitioning instead of just synthetically raising prices with regulations to force the transition unnaturally fast causing massive spikes in energy costs and rolling blackouts.
Here in missouri My electric bill is over 500 a month. Last year around 300 year before that under 200. It's getting so bad the ppl around here are demanding a investigation into liberty.
At least Orange Man with his mean tweets is gone.
The Demonrats are ruining our economy and constitution just to keep themselves in power!
That’s so sad, let own nation people starving staying poor and support War❗️
That’s your presidential slogan. “Both parties will make your problems worse.”
Billions to Ukraine Nazis who wear an actual Nazi patch. Nothing for your rear end. You aren't a defense industry stock.
This is grotesque…. this is dystopian, this is pathetic beyond anyone's imagination. No other country EVER claimed to be "the shining city on top of the hill"…. the USA did but failed MISERABLY when it came to delivering…the city is not going to shine when there is no electricity.
And everyone should buy a electric vehicle.
You will own nothing and be happy.
Right after the Green Energy scam
Don't worry. Joe Biden will print more money and BAM its all fixed or something.
The US govt isn't giving money to Ukraine. They're lending a dollar amount that's just a number on a computer screen. It's debt. It's not money.
It’s a stupid tax. People were stupid enough to vote for biden. Here’s your green new deal suckers
The base bills are insane 100 dollar delivery fee from con Ed? Wtf now your a delivery company?
What utilities side of the womans cutoff story…. let me guess the "journalist" didnt get both sides of the story. Just the side that fits the narrative.
4:00 that is nothing wait until we start adding all the electric vehicles in 2025…
4:16 well they to pay for gavin's dinner some how.
Pretty soon we'll have 30-year payments to pay off our energy bills.
It will be a lot more than one in six.
Thumbs up. Though, can we stop calling them Russian sanctions. They aren't hurting Russia nor did they originate with Russia. They are self-sanctions, thx.
Imagine what this will look like once every car is electric.
Ukraine and covid are money laundering schemes
Go fund me probably gives it directly to the utility co. They know better than you
