Texas Gov. Greg Abbott held an emergency meeting with lawmakers on Saturday to deal with the spike some Texans are seeing in their electricity bills.

Some have reported being billed thousands of dollars for the past week alone.

This is due to a temporary massive spike in the energy market during the power crisis.

The state said it would work to find out the full cost of these energy bills and how the state can reduce the burden.

However, it is not known what concrete measures will be taken.
