Washington, DC -Today, Congressman Van Drew sent a letter to Atlantic City Electric (ACE) to address their claims that his office has refused to engage in productive conversations, despite ACE's refusal to participate in his October 8th hearing on rising electricity bills.

"Everything they want to say to us in a closed-door meeting can be said to the public—so what are they hiding?" said Congressman Van Drew. "I have been more than willing to meet with Exelon and ACE, which is why they were invited to testify at the hearing, yet they declined. Despite my office sending multiple letters and engaging in ongoing communication with their office, they have offered no meaningful solutions or explanations. We have given them every opportunity to be transparent with the public, but they continue to avoid accountability. It is time for them to answer directly to the people whose bills are skyrocketing. No more excuses—we demand real answers."
