(WHBL) – More than 36,000 utility customers across Wisconsin have been helped to clear their overdue utility bills thanks to a $21 million dollar allocation to the Wisconsin Home Energy Assistance Program. Governor Tony Evers said on Wednesday that the money comes from Wisconsin’s fiscal year 21 allocation for the federal Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program. And for those weary of navigating through applications for getting such help, there’s relief of another kind – the payments were made directly on behalf of those eligible and no further action needs to be taken.
The allocation is the latest step made after several consumer protections were put in place last year that allowed people to stay safe in their homes and maintain utility service even if they lost income. Later, the Public Service Commission helped utilities to account for those expenses and maintain their financial strength and service.
