Vice Chair Kim Barrow highlighted the significance of Juneteenth during yesterday's Public Meeting. The holiday marks June 19, 1865, when Union General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, to announce that enslaved people were free, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation.

“Juneteenth asks us to confront difficult parts of our history… and reminds us that progress is possible,” Barrow said.

A day to honor resilience.
A day to celebrate freedom.
A day to recommit to the work ahead.

PUC offices are closed today, Friday, in observation of Juneteenth. We reopen Monday at 8 a.m.

PUC Vice Chair Kim Barrow joined a powerhouse panel at MACRUC.

The IRP Evolution, alongside Dr. Zenon Christodoulou, Katherine Smith, Timothy Burdis, Fred Ochsenhirt and Sarah Freeman, was a spotlight on how integrated resource planning can help states tackle today’s resource adequacy challenges, maintain reliability, and keep energy affordable amid a rapidly shifting electric landscape.

Barrow's remarks underscored the growing supply‑demand imbalance, rising consumer costs, and the critical role of IRP in aligning reliability, resilience, and state-policy goals.
