Rate Plan Vacatur Interim Protections Temporary Amendment Act of 2026

This bill temporarily prevents electric companies from disconnecting service for non-payment during a specific period when a previously approved electricity rate plan is being reviewed by the courts. It applies to all residential and commercial electricity customers in the District of Columbia who might face disconnection while a new rate plan is being developed. The law prohibits disconnections for 15 calendar days after a court vacates an existing rate plan and orders a new one, and the protection automatically expires 90 days after a related emergency amendment takes effect. This measure aims to provide short-term stability for customers during the legal review process without changing the underlying rate plan approval system.
