</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">The November 1994 election represented a dramatic cry from the
American people for change. They want a government that works better and
costs less. They want their representatives to take a hard look at this nation's
budget and make the tough choices they have to make with their own budgets
every single day. For a long time, individual Americans have had to
re-examine their spending habits and determine how and where they can
spend their . hard earned money more effectively. The United States
government is being asked to do the same thing. </font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">
</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">One policy that needs to be re-examined is federal subsidies provided to
government-owned electric utilities and to rural electric cooperatives.
Government-owned electric utilities that serve less than 24% of all American
electricity consumers are the direct beneficiaries of numerous subsidies that
translate into a heavy tax burden to the majority of Americans. In fact, 76% of
the nation's electricity consumers don't benefit from these programs at all. </font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">
</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman"><b>The
government does not need to be in the electric utility industry.</b>
America's electric power utilities are now entering a new era of competition
that will bring enormous benefits and lower costs to all consumers. Citizens
Against Energy Subsidies (CAES) is a diverse coalition of taxpayer,
consumer activist, senior citizen and small business organizations.<span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"> We urge
you to support privatization of the Power Marketing Administrations (PMA's)
through sale to the highest bidder, and without onerous restrictions on the
sale of power. </span>If the sale of the PMA's is not based upon a free, fair market
sale, the cost to the American taxpayer will be enormous. </font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">...</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">Grover R. Norquist
