AUSTIN, Texas – Gov. Greg Abbott has asked state regulators to investigate Atmos Energy for failing to deliver natural gas to North Texas residents during the recent cold snap.
In letters sent Wednesday, Abbott criticized the energy company’s actions as “unacceptable” and called on Attorney General Ken Paxton and Railroad Commission Chair Christi Craddick to take swift action.
“It is apparent that Atmos Energy acted irresponsibly and was unprepared for the event,” wrote Abbott, a two-term Republican.
