Other title: House Bill 2156
No full text"February 9, 2023."
Testimony before the Kansas Legislature, House Energy, Utilities and Telecommunications Committee, by David Nickel, Consumer Counsel, Citizens' Utility Ratepayer Board.Citizens' Utility Ratepayer Board legislative testimony ; 2023Testimony in support of House Bill 2156. "HB 2156 permits, but does not require, Kansas utilities that are subject to regulation by the Commission to file tariffs in an appropriate rate case that contain rates, terms or charges to provide relief for low-income utility ratepayers. In order to be effective, these proposed tariffs must be approved by the Commission as just and reasonable, not unduly preferential and not unreasonably discriminatory. The intent of this legislation is to eliminate a potential decision from a Kansas appellate court that such proposed or effective rates, terms or charges are unjust, unreasonably discriminatory and/or unduly preferential merely because such rates, terms or charges are below the cost of service for the benefit of low-income residential customers. Importantly, it is not the intent of this bill to cause Kansas utilities to become charities, as charitable functions are appropriately met by other organizations. Rather, HB 2156 is framed only to allow Kansas utilities to find just and reasonable ways to help low-income ratepayers better cope with their high energy burden.

Other title: House Bill 2295

Testimony before the Kansas Legislature, House Corrections and Juvenile Justice Committee, by Randy Bowman, Executive Director of Public Affairs, Kansas Department of Corrections.Testimony in opposition to HB 2295. "The tragic event that inspired the introduction of this bill is chilling for any parent, and any person, to think about. And the goal of this bill to reduce the likelihood of a similar victims in the future is admirable and shared by all of us at KDOC. However, in our view creating a reporting requirement for persons who live with offenders supervised in our communities will not improve, and could compromise, public safety. Our concerns are the potential victimization of persons living with persons supervised in the community, housing instability for supervised individuals and our capacity to implement the notification requirements and respond to notices with our current resources.
