    Tracker map has house showing we have power, we don't and can't get a hold of a person to talk to. Been reporting it every 2 hours. 😤😡

    $37.8 million. That’s how much the Centerpoint CEO made in salary and bonuses last year. More than the CEOs of Walmart, Nike, and Walt Disney World.

    It’s hot, men have to work extremely safe. Electricity is a privilege. Life is a privilege. These men work a 50 hour work week to survive. Society says the lineman trade is blue collar. Give them lower pay and more hours. Build America faster and cheaper. 👁️
    People that live in environments with extreme weather understand delays in comfort.

      These people vote against their best interests because they don't know any better. It's all they know because it was passed down to them by their parents and communities. Very similar to poverty and addiction.

      How does being connected to the national power grid help? Please explain that logic. Will a down power line still work if it was connected to the nation’s grid? 😂 Please help me understand that

      The irrational decision to not be a part of the union, affects more than just Texans.
      I’m hoping someday, people start listening to their common sense voice, Donald Trump is proof that Gods are dangerous. Or God is a fool!
      Religion is responsible for all the conflicts within this world, today, and throughout history. As “witness “, to the undeniable facts!
      Religion divides, and religions elects terrorists to be their president! Trump, and Hamas, are one and the same! Elected by those who worship false gods, making us all suffer for their forced delusions. Creating division, and hindering to pursuit of happiness for all.
      Texas promotes a primitive culture, as the sea level rises. Will see if they reach out? I’m sure the rest of the union will throw you a life preserver! You just have to be humbled enough to ask for help.

    The power is out at middle street of east downtown again, it’s hasn’t even been a week since power is back on. I just restock the fridge two days ago after everything was spoiled. We need reimbursement from the city or the power company due to the failure of the power company and our governors for allowing the failures even after many people died after the outage in 2021. Our state needs federal regulation just like any other states that doesn’t experience the level of power outage we have.

      Centerpoint is taking their time to approve their contract negotiations. Lineman will not work for free also Centerpoint tells them where to go. Do not blame the lineman they are ready to go but Centerpoint is taking their sweet time.

    Wait investigation? What are they investigating? Because you can clearly see centerpointless was negligent in their response to the storm like the ceo was praying the storm turned and went to Mexico. Crazy part is that centerpointless charge me 300$ and threaten to cut my connection when there was no electricity 😂 they need to go to prison for the 3 people who died because of centerpointless negligence

    Well she can keep asking and her cronies unless they go out there and start pulling up wire, shut the front door poles are down some literally snapped at the base, giant trees fell on lines plus a plethora of other things. no company on the entire planet could have millions of customers up and running over night and yet you have the audacity to complain. On top of that the great expectation of political folks who should know better than to take issue looking for reelection points on how the tried so hard for them to get answers and electricity. Too many believe in what cartoons do snap a finger and voila there’s power. Wake up folks this is not TV this is real life.
