Summer is here! Get your business ready for warmer temperatures by using this energy-saving tip to help lower your energy bill: Unplug chargers and devices: Even when not in use, chargers and electronic devices consume “vampire” energy. Unplug them or use power strips with switches to cut off power completely. Remember, small adjustments can lead to energy savings. Visit sdge.com/MyBusiness for more helpful energy-saving tips. #sdge #SDGEassist

Thank you to everyone who helped in the advocacy effort over the past few months and made our need for the rate increase clear to the governor! The governor announced the budget plan for the upcoming fiscal year which includes a six month delay in rate increases for developmental services instead of the one year delay that was proposed in the May revision. The final stage of the rate increases should occur on January 1, 2025. While any delay is disappointing, it’s clear that our collective advocacy ensured that we will see some rate relief in the upcoming year. This was an incredibly challenging budget year and we certainly made our presence felt as we fought for the individuals with IDD and the workforce that supports them. #CaliforniaBudget #GovernorNewsom #California #Government #Budget #IDD #DisabilityServices #Disability #DisabilityWorkers #DisabilitySupport #DevelopmentalServices
