On Monday evening, April 6, 2009, anti-electricity-rate-hike activists staged a candlelight march and demonstration. It ended up at the residence in north Baltimore of Mayo Shattuck, CEO of Constellation Energy, the parent company of BGE. The activists are demanding the reregulation and "roll back of gas and electric rates" in Maryland and a halt to any planned shut-offs by BGE of electric utilities to about "84,000 households." The protest action was cosponsored by the Bailout the People Movement and Maryland Coalition for BGE Reregulation.
