All Information on Electric Utility Prices across Arkansas can be found in the following Google Spreadsheet.

All of this information was taken directly off of each website of these providers. Please remember that Petit Jean Electric is a part of Electric Cooperatives of Arkansas and their prices will be near or match other Cooperatives, such as First Electric Cooperative and South-Central Arkansas Cooperative.

Clearly, Petit Jean Electric is costing more than other major Utility Companies in the area, which ask why it is so much more than other providers. Is this due to the loss of money from their failed Petit Jean Fiber project? Or is Petit Jean Electric just price gouge their customers for an extra buck to fill their pockets? Who knows, however, with as many signatures as possible, this Petition will be sent to the Attorney General - Division for Utility Costs and Scams for an investigation into their working.

Please help support the push for more affordable basic needs such as Electric.
