"Securing reliable and affordable electricity is extremely important to the Asian-owned businesses that make up about 7 percent of San Diego County's economy. Many of our members' companies are small and family-owned. They can't afford the impacts associated with an electricity shortage. Sunrise Powerlink is the best option for San Diego for reasons beyond reliability and affordability."
    -- Joni Low, Executive Director, Asian Business Association

"The Sunrise Powerlink represents a critical investment in the infrastructure of our region. As we all know, the longer we delay strengthening our grid, the more expensive it will be in the future for ratepayers."
    -- Lani Lutar, President & CEO, San Diego County Taxpayers Association

"[San Diego Office Interiors] is a small business, and, by virtue of our mission, we are in contact with many, many businesses - both large and small - that are locating or expanding in San Diego. Many of them are high-tech or biotech and are highly dependent on reliable power. I support the Sunrise Powerlink because I believe it is the best option to ensure businesses have the energy they need to grow, thrive and compete."
    -- Vince Mudd, President, San Diego Office Interiors

"We can't afford to wait several more years for new transmission lines in the area. We can't afford to jeopardize our economy by creating an environment of unpredictable energy supplies from year to year."
    -- Duane Roth, President, CONNECT

"It makes no difference where you live in San Diego County. The Sunrise Powerlink will benefit the entire region by bringing clean energy generated in the Imperial Valley to San Diego County, where it is needed most."
