#MLGW has initiated rolling blackouts this morning after TVA re-issued a Step 50 Curtailment which means that all local power companies are required to drop between 5 and 10 percent of their total electrical load. This is necessary to avoid major outages. #MLGWNews

Due to increasing TVA fuel rates combined with increasing summer electricity consumption, #MLGW customers will see summer electric bills increase substantially. #MLGWNews

#MLGW is NOT disconnecting water. Do NOT fill your tubs with water. We have asked our customers to conserve water due to our freezing reservoir and broken water mains around the city. #ServingYouIsWhatWeDo

Easter-Thomas: "It's an outside uncontrollable police presence." She also notes Dunavant told the council the city has not say over whether federal officers come or not. "But that doesn't mean Memphis leaders have to sit idly by."
On the Legend resolution, Easter Thomas says she has concerns about a "federal takeover of policing" cites "dog whistle" message by Trump about federal troops to majority Democratic cities with large Black populations.

Councilwoman @MEasterThomas is giving a read of all reads in the calmest tone regarding how trash Operation Legend is and how @MayorMemphis says wait for funds that are helpful, yet is rushing to receive federal funds and law enforcement help coming in.

Tonight, the voters of Memphis were told their voices do not matter. Council’s vote will result in less police officers and more crime. It’s unfortunate some members of the body couldn’t put their trust in the very people who elected them.
