<p>WASHINGTON, D.C. – August 13,

2015 – (RealEstateRama) — The National Congress of Black Women, Inc.

(NCBW) supports the efforts of the Consumers for Smart Solar. As stated

in our Amicus Brief filed at the Florida Supreme Court on June 10, 2015,

the NCBW opposes the Floridians for Solar Choice (FSC) Solar Ballot

Initiative because the proposed amendment, if approved, will have a

recurring detrimental financial impact on Black women, their families

and communities in particular, as well as generally upon members of the

public dependent upon electric utility service. <span id="more-1959" />

Persons who cannot afford solar energy will not have the benefit of

solar energy. Yet, those persons will suffer utility rate increases

needed to subsidize the use or intermittent use of the utility grid by

solar energy users.

As an organization whose mission is to encourage the participation of

Black women and their families in the development of public policy that

impacts them through political education and involvement, the failure

of the FSC ballot summary to fully and accurately explain the purpose

and overall effect and ramifications of the proposed amendment, causes

an unfair and misleading presentation to the voters.
