It’s been one year since Hurricane Beryl hit Houston and knocked out power for millions.

Host Raheel Ramzanali talks with Claire Hao, energy and power grid reporter at the Houston Chronicle, about the failure to deliver meaningful reform, the power company’s plans, and why customers will have to pay more.
