Chris Beeker announced on Monday his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Alabama Public Service Commission (PSC) Place 2. 

Brent Woodall, a Tuscumbia attorney, announced recently he was running for the Republican nomination for Place 2 on the Public Service Commission.

The Alabama Public Service Commission (PSC) voted at a meeting on Thursday to consider buying new state vehicles for commissioners.

Cullman County Sheriff Matt Gentry, a Republican, announced on Friday he was running for the Public Service Commission in 2026.

Governor Kay Ivey on Friday announced she is tapping State Rep. Cynthia Almond (R-Tuscaloosa) to serve as president of the Public Service Commission. 

On Tuesday, former AL-2 Republican congressional hopeful Caroleene Dobson withdrew her name from consideration to fill the Public Service Commission presidency, vacated by Twinkle Cavanaugh, who resigned to take a job with Trump's U.S. Department of Agriculture.

With the announcement that Twinkle Andress Cavanaugh was appointed as the state director for rural development in Alabama for the U.S. Department of Agriculture on Tuesday, the question now is who will Gov. Kay Ivey choose to replace her.

Alabama Power and the Alabama Public Service Commission approved a 4.87% rate increase for the company’s customers at a Tuesday hearing.

When people hear about Public Service Commission president Twinkle Cavanaugh, the first two questions they often ask are: What is the Public Service Commission, and is that her real name?

The Alabama Public Service Commission (APSC) blamed the Biden administration for higher power bills across the state.

Services are set for Thursday for former Public Service (PSC) Commissioner Terry Dunn. He died on January 22 in Gadsden at age 64.

Terry Dunn, former Alabama Public Service Commissioner, died Monday en route to a hospital in Gadsden at age 64 following a health decline.

Alabama Power Company customers will see an increase in their power bills starting this month, which according to the utility, fuel costs are to blame for the increase.

“Because I know that change is the only course for a new beginning at the Public Service Commission, I am wholeheartedly endorsing Robert McCollum for Place 2 on the Public Service Commission,” Robin Litaker said announcing her endorsement ahead of Tuesday's runoff election.

“I will not be a yes man. I will not vote for every rate increase. I will ask questions and I will make decisions that are fair to the consumer," Robert McCollum told the 1819 News about his candidacy for PSC.

"As an Alabama Public Service Commissioner, he will always shoot down the far-left’s attempts to put their socialist political whims over the interests of Alabama families, small businesses, and farmers,” said Patriots First PAC in a statement endorsing Oden for PSC.

“It is my privilege to receive the forestry association’s trust as I continue my re-election effort. I will continue to work hard and fight for Alabama and keep DC policies out of our state," said Beeker.

During an appearance on Mobile radio FM Talk 106.5's "The Jeff Poor Show," Woodall discussed his bid, which he said centers around returning excess tax revenue collected on utility fees to the ratepayers.

Public Service Commission candidate John Hammock is the Mayor of Tallassee. He argued that the Biden administration is intentionally driving up fossil fuel prices in order to force Americans to transition to cleaner forms of energy. Hammock said that he will work harder than the incumbent commissioner.

Like them or not, Place 1 Public Service Commissioner Jeremy Oden's "always totin" campaign ads leave a lasting impression and in a down-ballot contest with higher-profile races at the top of the ticket, that could be the difference in a winning campaign.
