AR 125 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Expresses no confidence in BPU.

This Assembly Resolution (AR 125) is a symbolic statement expressing the New Jersey General Assembly's "no confidence" in the Board of Public Utilities (BPU), the agency responsible for regulating energy rates and services. It cites concerns that BPU policies have contributed to electricity prices 27% above the national average and a projected 17-20% increase in average monthly bills following a BPU-certified auction. The resolution states the Assembly no longer trusts the BPU to ensure affordable energy rates or effectively address rising costs for residents. As a non-binding resolution, it does not change policy but formally communicates legislative disapproval to the BPU and Governor.
