John -

This November, Maine voters will vote on Pine Tree Power — a critical
ballot initiative that would create the first statewide consumer-owned
non-profit utility company in the nation and help us deliver on our
broader climate goals at the same time.

But Election Day is just over one month away, which means we’re running
out of time to encourage Mainers to vote YES on Pine Tree Power. That’s
why we’re reaching out,
John.

help pass Pine Tree Power. Can you sign up to join us virtually?

Here’s why this ballot initiative is so important:

Two large utility companies — Central Maine Power and Versant — dominate
Maine. For years, CMP has been voted the worst utility in the nation, with
a record number of shut-offs due to their incredibly high rates. They are
also one of the biggest anti-climate lobbyists in the state.

Plus, in Maine, home heating and car emissions are responsible for the
highest percentage of carbon emissions. By replacing these utility
companies with community-owned Pine Tree Power Company, we would be able
to save money and remove barriers to dramatically reduce carbon emissions.

Pine Tree Power could set the stage for even more states to follow Maine’s
example and place control over utilities — and the transition to
renewables — into our communities’ hands.
