Why should DTE have to pay their "extracurricular" business expenses when you can?

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel filed testimony on Tuesday in DTE’s most recent request to increase its rates, calling the $266 million request “excessive and unnecessary.”

[…]business consultant Sebastian Coppola said DTE’s proposed gas rate hike would result in a 6.5% increase to the average customer’s bill.

Need I remind the DTE-bill-paying customers amongst us that a $368 million rate increase was approved only in December 2023?

Coppola also pointed to DTE’s estimated $74,769 jet travel costs included in the company’s projected expenses submitted as part of the rate case, and[…]leased private aircrafts for executives[…].

DTE spokesperson Ryan Lowry [said], “Regarding travel expenses, a fraction of the costs for limited air travel for business-appropriate needs[…]were included in the initial DTE Gas rate request.”


Everything I say is a lie.
