Dear Friend,
Two years ago this week, our people-powered movement won the largest investment in climate action EVER! The passage of the Inflation Reduction Act in 2022 put us on a path to cutting climate pollution 40 percent by 2030, while creating nine million family-sustaining jobs (yes, you read that right).
Since then, billions of dollars have been flowing into local communities to build new clean energy infrastructure, fight climate change, protect communities from pollution, and help families save tens of thousands of dollars in energy rebates.
The thing is, most people still don't know about this historic climate victory and the money that is available to them and their communities!
To celebrate the 2-year anniversary, help us spread the word to your friends and neighbors and take our quiz to learn more about the Inflation Reduction Act. |

B. The average household could save nearly $14,000 in clean energy rebates! In total, Inflation Reduction Act rebate programs are expected to save consumers up to $1 billion annually in energy costs.
In addition, new analysis from the Treasury Department and the IRS show that in 2023, more than 3.4 million American families saved $8.4 billion from consumer tax credits on home energy technologies like electric heat pumps and rooftop solar. |
