一项结束阿拉巴马州公务员委员会公开选举的法案在未能获得足够的立法支持后被撤销。 临时参议院(Pro Tempore Garlan Gudger)以匆忙的流程、狭隘的焦点和不充分的公共信息为由,提出了终止阿拉巴马州公共服务委员会公开选举的法案。 A bill to end public elections for Alabama’s Public Service Commission has been dropped after failing to gain enough legislative support, with Senate Pro Tempore Garlan Gudger citing a rushed process, narrow focus, and insufficient public information. 尽管有人将其宣传为提升少数族裔代表性的方式，但关键发起人反对，称其时机不佳且沟通不足。 Though promoted by some as a way to boost minority representation, key sponsors opposed it, calling it poorly timed and under-communicated. 阿拉巴马政权游说者与清洁能源团体讨论该法案的录音引发争议, A recording of Alabama Power’s lobbyist discussing the bill with a clean energy group fueled controversy, though the utility never endorsed it. 该法案的取消是因为人们担心水电费和治理率高, 但Gudger确认, 立法机关仍愿意通过新的、公众支持的解决方案解决能源负担能力问题。 The bill’s removal follows concerns over high utility rates and governance, but Gudger confirmed the legislature remains open to addressing energy affordability through new, publicly supported solutions.
