In 2025, the work of the Citizens' Utility Board contributed to tangible wins: protecting customers from unnecessary rate hikes, pushing utilities to accelerate clean energy investments, and holding regulators accountable to Oregon’s climate goals. Their victories highlight the power of community advocacy in shaping a more affordable, reliable, and sustainable energy future for all Oregonians.

SOCAN’s September general public meeting from 6:00 – 7:30 on Tuesday September 30th at the Medford Public Library, 205 S. Central Avenue, will focus on what CUB is doing. The program will feature David Betrán Barajas, Community Organizer, and Jennifer Hill-Hart, Policy & Program Director. During the program, they will discuss what is CUB and identify recent legislative and utility policy wins they have enjoyed, notably the POWER Act, Avista Gas wins, and FAIR Energy Act. They will also preview anticipated CUB campaigns.
