Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel joined Consumers Energy to kick off a public campaign to make sure Michigan residents know about – and access – tens of millions in federal, state and local dollars to help pay winter heating bills.
People who are struggling with energy bills should call 2-1-1, a free service that connects people with nonprofit agencies in communities across the state, or visit mi211.org.
Other ways to get help:
- Apply for State Emergency Relief at
https://newmibridges.michigan.gov/ - Contact Consumers Energy
at 800-477-5050 to make
payment arrangements - Apply for Home Heating Credit via
Michigan Department of Treasury
at michigan.gov/treasury
“No one likes to ask for help,” said Nessel, “but millions of dollars are available to help people pay their bills. Calling 2-1-1 for help will get that money to people in need.”
