TVA Is Under Attack
The Threat is Real
The Trump-Vance Administration is pushing to privatize the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) — a reckless corporate power grab that threatens the livelihoods, security, and financial well-being of millions of families, businesses and communities across the Southeast.
What Privatization Means for You
Higher Electric Bills
Alabama Power, a private utility, charges residential customers 40% more than Huntsville Utilities, which buys from TVA. Privatization means your bills skyrocket while CEOs pocket the profits.
Less Transparency
Private companies serve shareholders, not communities. Say goodbye to public oversight and accountability. Decisions will be made behind closed doors for profit, not people.
National Security Risk
TVA powers critical military bases, FBI operations, and space missions. Selling this infrastructure to private interests jeopardizes our national defense.
Lost Recreation Access
TVA's dams, parks, lakes, and trails could be sold off. Free and low-cost recreational opportunities that families depend on would disappear.
Less Reliable Service
Private companies cut costs to maximize profits. That means less investment in maintenance, upgrades, and grid reliability when you need power most.
Corporate Wealth Transfer
We paid for TVA. We maintained it. Privatization is nothing more than stealing public assets and handing them to private investors for free.
The Truth About TVA
TVA is fully self-sustaining and does not add to the federal deficit. TVA's sales of electricity fully fund TVA operations. It receives no taxpayer money and its bonds are not a federal obligation. Privatizing TVA won't lower the deficit, but it will burden 10 million people with higher costs.
