Sign The Letter

Dear Legislator:

I am writing to express my strong support for the repeal of the Right of First Refusal (ROFR) as written in SF 1456. Repealing this law will help give me a much-needed break on my ever-rising energy bill. Especially with today's high inflation and increasing cost of living, this would greatly ease the burden on my family's pocketbook.
Several articles and studies have highlighted the detrimental effects of the ROFR law in Minnesota and its harmful effects on consumers' bills. It has been shown to stifle competition and innovation in the transmission planning process, ultimately leading to energy inflation and unnecessarily higher bills for consumers like me. It has become clear that maintaining the ROFR perpetuates anti-competitive practices, inhibits interstate commerce, and undermines regional grid planning and operation especially as our state looks to pivot toward new energy sources into the future.
I urge you to prioritize the repeal of the ROFR law and stand on the side of consumers like me who would welcome relief from rising energy prices.

Right of First Refusal (ROFR) laws, which allow existing utility companies to enjoy a monopoly over new energy infrastructure, are anti-competitive and result in higher energy bills for Minnesota consumers. Repealing the ROFR law in Minnesota will not only benefit consumers by lowering energy costs, but also promote economic growth and sustainability.
