Do we really act that unwelcoming to someone who wants to run for Governor who hasn't lived here? Sure. I think most other states would feel the same way.
Do we act that unwelcoming to someone who wants to move to RI and live here? No.

Verizon pays what WPRI wants and passes that cost on to the customer.

Yes, those who don't qualify for assistance will pay the higher rates. We don't know yet about rates for next year. It's spiked so much in part due to Russia being a major provider of the world's natural gas supply and that's gone from the market, so everyone else has fewer sources to buy from, which increases rates. And RI electricity is generated from about 80% natural gas sources. So if ol' Vlad chills out over there and the market opens up again, we could see rates go down. If crazier things happen, they could go up further.
