🌞 Advocates, community members, and lawmakers came together to support the ASAP Act today at the Capitol steps!

This legislation would help New York build more affordable, reliable clean energy faster.

The ASAP Act would:

⚡ Expand rooftop and community solar across New York
⚡ Modernize outdated utility interconnection processes
⚡ Continue the successful NY-Sun program
⚡ Lower costs and shorten timelines for clean energy projects

The result? Cleaner air, lower energy bills, stronger local economies, and thousands of good-paying jobs across the state.

Albany has the chance to push NY towards energy affordability and stability, away from volatile fossil fuel dependence.

New York’s climate law was designed to cut pollution, lower costs, and move us toward a cleaner, more affordable energy future.

recently proposed changes that could move us in the opposite direction by creating loopholes that keep us locked onto fossil fuels for decades to come.

Here’s what’s at stake:

• Changing how methane is measured will undermine its real world impact

• Ignoring pollution from imported gas from other states lets major emissions go unchecked

• Treating biofuels as “zero emissions” could increase pollution, not reduce it

At the same time, we know what works: Clean energy is already delivering savings for households and creating jobs across the state.

The path forward is clear, stand up for energy affordability and cleaner air. Don’t roll it back NY's Climate Law.

🚀 Skyrocketing gas prices have reached Kingston, New York.

New York already has a solution— it's NY's Landmark Climate Law, the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA). Implemented, the CLCPA requires NY to move towards cleaner more affordable energy like wind and solar.

Clean, renewable, local energy is a clear path to lower energy prices that will can protect NY from volatile energy costs, at the pump and in your home, tied to vollitile fossil fuel prices dependant on global markets.

But now, is intending to gut NY’s Landmark Climate Law with changes that could lock us into decades of further fossil fuel dependence.
