Energy is the Issue

January 15, 2010

Heating your home, riding the “L” train, flipping on light switch and charging a cell phone are all impacted by the price and of availability of energy.   How we as Americans address the “energy issue” will impact the livelihood of generations to come.

It is difficult to cut through the cacophony of noise surrounding the current energy debate.   As a lifelong Illinoisan, I continue to be frustrated at the misinformation and political point scoring for one party or another.   To that end, I am I am excited to introduce you to the Illinois Energy Forum.   We are committed to providing factual, unbiased information about all aspects of the energy issue, aiming to achieve a sensible, balanced solution to our energy needs.  

The Illinois Energy Forum is the vehicle ordinary Illinoisans can use to educate themselves about energy issues and hold our elected officials accountable for their policy decisions.
