Vindman Announces New Legislative Package to Lower Utility Costs for Virginians
Position: Congressman Vindman introduced two bills to address rising utility costs: the Home Energy Affordability Act, which would limit electric utilities to one rate increase request per year, and the Utility Hikes Transparency Act, which would create a federal database of utility rate changes to increase consumer transparency.
May 20, 2026 | Economy and Jobs, Local Issues, Press Releases
Washington, D.C. — After the news that NextEra will attempt to acquire Dominion Energy, Congressman Eugene Vindman (Va.-07) — a founding member of the Congressional Lowering Utility Bills Caucus — introduced two pieces of legislation that would lower costs for families and hold utility companies accountable.
“Electricity bills are out of control in Virginia, and I am fighting to bring your monthly bills down,” said Vindman. “The Home Energy Affordability Act and the Utility Hikes Transparency Act are common sense laws that would limit rate changes to once per calendar year and ensure these companies cannot hide price increases from consumers. Working Virginians deserve these kinds of protections, and I’ll continue to fight to lower costs for them every day in Congress.”
The Home Energy Affordability Act would help protect consumers from repeated utility rate hikes by limiting electric utilities to one rate increase request every 365 days. This bill is based on a proposal that has received overwhelming support from constituents across Virginia’s Seventh District and would amend the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 to require states to consider policies restricting how often regulated electric utilities can seek rate increases.
The Utility Hikes Transparency Act would create the first comprehensive, machine-readable federal database of retail utility rate changes in the United States. The tracker would be updated quarterly which would include approved and effective electric and natural gas utility rate changes for investor-owned utilities, cooperatives, and municipally owned utilities nationwide.
Since January 2025, more than 111.5 million electric utility customers and nearly 55.5 million natural gas utility customers across the United States have faced approved or proposed utility cost increases totaling nearly $93 billion through state Public Utility Commission proceedings.
The database created by the Utility Hikes Transparency Act would include information such as the utility name and state, type of service, dollar and percentage change to the average residential monthly bill, total revenue impact, number of customers affected, effective date of the change, Public Utility Commission approval date, primary stated reason for the change, and links to underlying regulatory dockets. Consumers would also be able to search utility information by zip code, address, city, or state.

Vindman Releases Statement Calling for Lower Utility Bills for Virginians
Position: Congressman Vindman expresses skepticism about the NextEra-Dominion Energy merger, stating he is uncertain whether it will lower utility costs for Virginia families and calling for detailed cost analysis before taking a final position. He emphasizes his focus on lowering energy bills through oversight and accountability measures.
May 18, 2026 | Local Issues, Press Releases
“When it comes to utilities, Virginians and I care about one thing: lowering costs.”
Washington, D.C. — Congressman Eugene Vindman (Va.-07), a founding member of the Congressional Lowering Utility Bills Caucus, released the following statement in response to the news that NextEra will attempt to acquire Dominion Energy.
“When it comes to utilities, Virginians and I care about one thing: lowering costs. Electricity bills are out of control in Virginia, and I am skeptical that the merger of two multibillion dollar companies will help lower costs for working families in my district. I want to see more details on the proposal, specifically the cost implications for families now and in the future, before commenting further,” said Vindman. “My office has heard from hundreds of Virginians frustrated by rising utility costs and repeated rate hikes, which is why I remain focused on lowering energy bills for them.”
Vindman has a record of fighting for lower utility bills. In February, he helped launch the Congressional Lowering Utility Bills Caucus to bring lawmakers together to provide real oversight and accountability. The caucus examines rate hikes, holds utility providers accountable, and pursues practical solutions that put affordability and fairness first.
When federal workers needed support most, Vindman spoke out joining 53 colleagues urging major utility companies to suspend late penalties and utility shutoffs for federal employees and contractors amid the federal government shutdown.

Vindman Leads U.S. House Effort to Ban Members of Congress from Using Prediction Markets
Position: Congressman Vindman advocates for legislation to prohibit Members of Congress and their immediate families from participating in prediction markets, arguing that such restrictions are necessary to prevent insider trading, protect national security, and restore public trust in Congress.
May 14, 2026 | Congress, Press Releases
Vindman: “Just like we should be banned from trading stocks, Members of Congress should be banned from prediction markets. The American people have zero trust in Congress, and we need to pass common sense measures like this to restore honesty and integrity to the people’s House.”
Washington, D.C. — Congressman Eugene Vindman (Va.-07) today introduced common sense legislation to prohibit Members of Congress and their immediate family members from participating in prediction markets.
“Just like we should be banned from trading stocks, Members of Congress should be banned from prediction markets. The American people have zero trust in Congress, and we need to pass common sense measures like this to restore honesty and integrity to the people’s House,” said Vindman. “We receive sensitive briefings, meet with senior leaders, and know what legislation is coming before anyone else. Allowing lawmakers or their families to use prediction markets, just like allowing them to trade stocks, undermines public trust, endangers America's national security, and enables the kind of shady behavior the American people have grown sick of. As an ethics lawyer, I believe public service should never be used as an opportunity to profit from insider access, and we need to ban this now.”
Vindman has also raised concerns about prediction markets tied to national security matters, warning that markets fueled by insider information could create risks for military operations and American service members.
In April, Vindman led 15 colleagues in a bipartisan letter to Secretary Pete Hegseth urging the Department of Defense to issue a general order prohibiting military personnel from using prediction markets to bet on national security-related events. The request followed the U.S. Department of Justice charging an active-duty Special Operations soldier with using classified information tied to the raid that captured Nicolás Maduro to place bets on Polymarket.
Earlier that month, he sent a letter to Polymarket CEO Shayne Coplan demanding the immediate preservation and disclosure of all records tied to bets on U.S. military actions, following reports that traders have profited from wagers linked to sensitive operations.
Vindman is a cosponsor of the Public Integrity in Financial Prediction Markets Act of 2026 (H.R. 7004). This bill would ban Members of Congress, their immediate families, staff, and the executive branch from using prediction markets.
Vindman is also a cosponsor of the TRUST in Congress Act (H.R. 396) which would require Members of Congress and their immediate family to place investments into a blind trust until 6 months after leaving their role in Congress.
Vindman also has a long track record of supporting legislation that takes on corruption and demands we hold public servants to the highest ethical standard.

Vindman Leads on Policy Lowering Gas Prices, Supports Diesel and Gas Taxes Pause
Position: Vindman supports pausing federal diesel and gas taxes to reduce fuel prices and lower costs for working families, farmers, truckers, and consumers.
May 13, 2026 | Economy and Jobs, Local Issues, Press Releases
Woodbridge, Va. — Today U.S. Representative Eugene Vindman (Va.-07) announced support for a package of legislative policies that would lower gas prices for working families across Virginia. Vindman introduced the Diesel Prices Relief Act (H.R. 8772) and cosponsored the Gas Prices Relief Act (H.R. 7919) and the Gas Prices Relief Act of 2026 (H.R. 8572).
“Across the Seventh District, I have heard from Virginians who continue to send me back to DC with one message: the pain at the pump needs to end. I am proud to lead on legislation that would pause both the diesel and gas taxes, giving Virginians a much-needed break when filling the tank,” said Vindman. “Republicans chose an unpopular, expensive war in Iran that has driven gas prices through the roof. Not only will these bills make it cheaper to fill up on gas, but lowering diesel prices will reduce the costs of groceries and other household goods that are shipped across the country in diesel-powered trucks. I’ll never stop fighting to lower gas prices and bring down the cost of living for Virginians.”
He is leading the Diesel Prices Relief Act alongside Congressman Don Davis (N.C.-01).
"High diesel prices have squeezed eastern North Carolina farmers, truckers, and small businesses,” said Davis. “The Diesel Prices Relief Act would suspend the federal diesel tax through the end of the year, putting money back into the pockets of the hardworking people who grow our food, move our goods, and keep America running.”
Vindman introduced the Diesel Prices Relief Act (H.R. 8772) which would pause the diesel tax until January 1, 2027 helping farmers and truck drivers better afford their stops at the gas station.
Vindman cosponsored the Gas Prices Relief Act (H.R. 7919) which would pause the gas tax until October 1, 2026.
Vindman cosponsored the Gas Prices Relief Act of 2026 (H.R. 8572) which would pause the gas tax until January 1, 2027.

Vindman Joins National Capital Region Democrats in Condemning Relocation of USDA’s Food Assistance Employees
Position: The representatives oppose the USDA's relocation of food assistance and nutrition program employees out of the National Capital Region, characterizing it as a mass layoff that will harm program administration, federal employees, and food security for Americans.
May 11, 2026 | Agriculture, Economy and Jobs, Local Issues, Press Releases
Washington, D.C. — Today, U.S. Representatives Eugene Vindman (Va.-07), Suhas Subramanyam (Va.-10), Don Beyer (VA-08), Steny Hoyer (Md.-05), Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-D.C.), Glenn Ivey (Md.-04), April McClain Delaney (Md.-06), Kweisi Mfume (Md.-07), Jamie Raskin (Md.-08), and James Walkinshaw (Va.-11) released the following statement after the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced a reorganization that would move most employees who work in food assistance and nutrition programs out of the National Capital Region (NCR):
“With only 30 days notice, the Trump Administration decided to attack federal employees, their families, and make it harder to administer Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and other food assistance programs. To be clear: this is a mass layoff and illegal reorganization under the guise of a relocation.
“This administration is also intentionally forcing hardworking and experienced USDA employees to choose between losing their careers in the midst of mass federal layoffs or moving their entire family across the country during the school year and uprooting their lives at a time of rising inflation.
“In one swift move, the Administration is undercutting food assistance, food safety, and farmers. This will make every single American less healthy and less safe. It will also increase food and healthcare costs on every single American.
“We saw this exact move before in 2019 with other USDA offices, and it was a disaster. It resulted in serious brain drain, reduced morale, and draconian cuts to programs that the American people rely on.
“It's clear this is also another targeted and cynical Republican attack on SNAP from millions of Americans. Make no mistake – this is not about government efficiency, it is not about optimizing services for the American people, and it is not about maximizing the use of taxpayer dollars. It is the latest in a long series of attempts by this administration to break the spirits of federal public servants and disrupt the delivery of crucial services to the American people.
“In short, this move will be a disaster. We will do everything we can to fight it and eventually reverse it.”
On April 30, 2026, USDA announced the relocations of SNAP to Indianapolis, the Child Nutrition Programs to Dallas, the Supplemental Nutrition and Safety Programs to Kansas City, research programs to Raleigh, Emergency Management and Continuity of Operations to Denver, and retailer operations and compliance will spread across offices in Atlanta, Los Angeles, Dallas, and New York City.
These changes are part of a larger USDA reorganization plan announced in July 2025 that would move most of the Department’s NCR staff to five regional hubs. In the announcement, USDA stated that they expected to move 2,300 USDA jobs out of the NCR. Other affected agencies include the U.S. Forest Service and the U.S. Food Safety and Inspection Service.
During the first Trump administration, the USDA relocated both the Economic Research Service (ERS) and the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) from Washington, DC to Kansas City, MO. A Government Accountability Office (GAO) study of these relocations found that they had significant impacts on both agencies’ staffing and productivity, including:
GAO also found that USDA did not follow many leading practices for agency relocations, including a failure to consult with its employees at any point during the process and the exclusion of several key variables, including employee attrition, in its economic analysis to support the relocations. Both agencies made positive improvements in these areas under the Biden administration, but the damage had already been done and many experienced, dedicated federal workers were essentially removed from their jobs.
In March 2025, the members introduced the Cost of Relocations Act, led by Congressman Suhas Subramanyam (Va.-10) and Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.), to fight back against President Trump’s relentless effort to relocate federal agencies and decimate their workforces. The legislation would require a cost-benefit analysis to be submitted to Congress in order to ensure that any attempt to move federal agencies is appropriately analyzed to guarantee it is in the best interest of the taxpayer and the agency’s mission.
