OHIO NUKE BAILOUT SCANDAL: Yet more FirstEnergy officials fired

In July, news broke that FirstEnergy (FE) Nuclear allegedly bribed the Ohio House Speaker, Larry Householder, and others, with $61 million to secure and defend a $1.3 billion ratepayer bailout for its dangerously age-degraded Davis-Besse and Perry atomic reactors on the Lake Erie shore, as well as dirty, old coal burners, including one in Indiana.

On October 29, the U.S. Attorney announced guilty pleas from two co-conspirators -- a top aide to Householder, and a FE lobbyist. In response, FE abruptly fired three top executives, including CEO Chuck Jones. Now FE has fired its top legal and ethics officers.

Ohioans, please take action: demand the state legislature repeal the scandalous, allegedly criminally obtained nuclear/coal bailout. (Or spread word to Ohioans you know.)
