This week on the People Power Podcast, Rev. Michael Malcom sits down with guest Daniel Blackman, as we take a deep into the crucial role of the Public Service Commission and why it matters for every family.

Daniel Blackman, a prominent figure in Georgia's political landscape, ran for the PSC to advocate for working families. His campaign was rooted in the belief that utility regulation is essential for economic mobility and community health.

Blackman emphasizes the need for reform in the PSC to address issues such as rising utility rates and the environmental impact of energy policies.

We are so excited to launch this podcast!
