Dromm in Daily News: Rally to make Con Edison see the light


From NY Daily News:
With New Yorkers already feeling the pinch from historically high gas prices, locals are now focusing their ire on Con Edison.

"This summer, Con Ed increased its rates for residential customers by 22% and for its commercial customers by 25% for its supply of electric power. This comes on the heels of a 6% increase for the delivery of electric power in April," said Daniel Dromm, a Democratic district leader in Jackson Heights.

"Now we are turning our disgust into action," said Dromm, who organized the rally to announce a campaign to send protest postcards to Con Ed chief Kevin Burke.
