P202100170 12/9/2020 6:58 AM Many have lost income due to job loss and are facing of food insecurities through no fault of their own. PLEASE do place a moratorium on involuntary disconnection of residential services and waving on late fees.
P202100171 12/9/2020 8:00 AM Please issue a statewide moratorium on the involuntary disconnection or discontinuance of residential service by Commission-regulated electric, natural gas and water corporations through at least March 31, 2021.

P202100172 12/9/2020 8:29 AM I am in support of the Consumers Council of Missouri's motion seeking an emergency order and expedited treatment requesting a statewide moratorium on the involuntary disconnection or discontinuance of residential service by Commission-regulated electric, natural gas and water corporations through at least March 31, 2021 in order to protect public health during the COVID-19 pandemic.
P202100174 12/9/2020 9:11 AM I support the Consumer Council of Missouri motion to prevent the disconnection of utilities due to the pandemic and severe economic distress many are encountering
P202100175 12/9/2020 9:57 AM Please don't involuntary shut off services to people during this trying time for everyone.
P202100176 12/9/2020 11:09 AM I support the moratorium on the shut off of public utilities for non payment during the covid crisis and at least through March 2021. As a retiree on a good pension, I personally am not in fear of the cut off of services, but for all the other victims of the virus and related economic downturn, this moratorium is an absolute necessity.
P202100177 12/9/2020 12:03 PM Re: AO-2021-0164, it is vitally important for public health that people who have been unable to pay their utility bills should not be cut off. In this time of pandemic, being able to stay warm, to have water for hand-washing as well as drinking, to have electricity for household appliances, will all help people resist the Covid-19 infection.
P202100178 12/9/2020 12:31 PM I support the Consumers Council of Missouri motion seeking an emergency order and expedited treatment requesting the Missouri Public Service Commission to issue a statewide moratorium on the involuntary disconnection or discontinuance of residential service by Commission-regulated electric, natural gas and water corporations through at least March 31, 2021. I believe these measures are necessary to protect the health and welfare of the public during the COVID-19 pandemic.
P202100179 12/9/2020 1:05 PM I urge you to approve the measure to place a hold on involuntary shut offs of gas, water, electric through 3/31/21, with no additional fees for delayed payment. This humanitarian action is desperately needed COVID relief. Thank you for your consideration. Reference AO-2021-0164
P202100180 12/9/2020 2:35 PM I am writing in hopes that you will please accept the recommendations of the Consumers Council of Missouri that Missouri Public Service Commission issue a statewide moratorium on the involuntary disconnection or discontinuance of residential service by Commission-regulated electric, natural gas and water corporations through at least March 31,2021. I am also in favor of a waiver of any late fees and related costs. Thank you for the opportunity of voicing my concerns.
P202100181 12/10/2020 4:30 PM As a result of Covid 19, many households have not earned income needed to pay for their utilities. Until the economy gets back 'to normal', there should be a moratorium on utility shutoffs. During this medical crisis, displacing individuals or shutting off utilities will further disrupt households and possibly cause civil unrest because of the despair caused by this pandemic. Please continue the moratorium until March 31, 2021. Thank you
P202100182 12/10/2020 8:44 PM Please extend the moratorium on utilities until at least thru 3/31/21. The involuntary disconnection or discontinuance of residential services by commission regulated electric, gas and water needs to remain in place. And waive late fees or any related costs.
P202100183 12/11/2020 2:02 PM (co) Customer called indicating today's weather is nice, and tomorrows is cold. During a pandemic, utility companies aren't making any sense. Times are hard. Disconnections need to be suspended.

P202100187 12/14/2020 9:19 AM I am respectfully requesting the Missouri Public Service Commission to issue a statewide moratorium on the involuntary disconnection or discontinuance of residential service by Commission-regulated electric, natural gas and water corporations through at least March 31, 2021, and that you order the waiver of any late fees and related costs. It is critical to keeping the people of MO safe and healthy.
P202100188 12/14/2020 1:23 PM I am in support of the emergency order to issue a statewide moratorium on the involuntary disconnection or discontinuance of residential service by Commission-regulated electric, natural gas and water corporations through at least March 31, 2021 AND a waiver of any late fees and related costs.
P202100189 12/14/2020 3:41 PM I support the motion to issue a moratorium on the shut-off of utilities during the winter months. Showing this compassion to Missouri citizens who work hard but find themselves in dire circumstances due to the pandemic is the least we can do.
P202100194 12/17/2020 2:58 PM (DF)See attached Public Comment.
P202100195 12/17/2020 4:38 PM I just want to let the Commissioners know that it is absolutely barbaric and sick that they denied a utility moratorium during a global pandemic. I am a teacher. I am worried about my neighbors, the elders, and small children.
P202100196 12/18/2020 9:15 AM "It is very sad that the Commissioners did not approve this moratorium. They can approve rate increase all of the time but not this? There are so many people out of work and trying to get by right now and are unable to pay their utilities. I am angry for my fellow citizens."
