Rep. Robert Godshall (R-Montgomery) will take over as Majority Chair of the House Consumer Affairs Committee this session. This is Rep. Godshall previously served as Republican Chair of the Committee. "As Majority chairman of the House Consumer Affairs Committee, my top priority will be to promote and encourage competition for electric generation supply and energy conservation," said Rep. Godshall. "My goal is to ensure that the electric bills paid by Pennsylvania consumers are reasonable and affordable."
Rep. Godshall said he supports clean, renewable energy and believes it should be part of a comprehensive statewide energy policy. He said a responsible energy plan protects natural resources while providing safe, reliable energy alternatives that consumers can afford.
"In the new term, I will also focus on gas pipeline safety," Rep. Godshall said. "With the expansion of natural gas drilling in the Commonwealth, it is critical that gas pipelines undergo rigorous inspections to ensure public health and safety. When violations occur, enforcement must be swift and appropriate."
