Grimes: Another California Fraud Slush Fund: New Solar Fee Will Raise Electric Bills

This absurd slush fund for governors and Democrats may be gaining traction in blue states across the country

With so much fraud uncovered in California, it’s hard to imagine there could be more. But we know there is more to uncover – more hospice Medi-Cal fraud, more homeless spending fraud, more Palisades fire victims fraud, more LAUSD fraud, more cash-for-ballots election fraud, more welfare fraud, more daycare fraud, more COVID-era relief fraud, more State Library fraud… where does it end?

The Globe has learned that there is more fraud in the planning stages – not existing fraud –  under the guise of yet another climate change clean-energy scheme. Specifically, another solar scheme… on the heels of CalDOGE uncovering a $1 Billion solar program funding a Democrat voter mobilization machine.

This is on my radar because of the home solar system I was mandated by state law to install on a home my husband and I built in 2022.

It turns out the solar works well – so well, we are not charged for electricity. After learning about the solar mandate, and while building the home, we made the decision to purchase the storage battery backup, which for us has enough solar energy stored up for several months of electricity. That is, if it is not taken from us by our electricity provider— as I understand could happen.
