Grassroots/Legislative

Riverland Energy and electric cooperatives through the U.S. are continually working with local, state and U.S. representatives and senators to ensure affordable energy costs for the future. Riverland Energy does not choose particular political parties, but instead works to educate all legislators on the possible effects particular bills can have on their constituents.
