Hello Friend,

This week, we joined the Renewable Heat Now campaign for a massive NY HEAT rally and advocacy day in Albany.

With the rising cost of living at the center of politics, and Con Ed filing for a double digit bill hike in New York this week, our call to pass the NY HEAT Act is more crucial than ever.

It wasn't our first big day of action, but it was our first one of 2025. As story after story breaks about the federal government's climate denial, we see firsthand how New York’s ability to keep making progress for millions is more important than ever.

But the funding to keep doing this work is less stable than ever. And we don't just want to keep doing it, we need to make it even more powerful.

So this year, we're setting our highest fundraising goal ever: $20,000 from grassroots donors like you.

We usually don't focus heavily on fundraising until later in the year. But, this isn't an ordinary year.

The closer we get to our goal today, the more confidently we can amp up our efforts and prepare for whatever we may face.

The more funds you help us raise, the more confident we can be.

Which means the more confidently we can keep going all out by bringing hundreds of people to Albany:

The more effectively we can train volunteers to lobby their legislators until our elected officials commit to doing what New Yorkers need:

The further we can take our demands up the chain, including all the way to Lieutenant Governor Delgado this week:

The more time we can spend crafting expert research on utility bills, and making sure the news media lets ordinary people know the truth:

If that seems like a lot, it is. It's also what we've been doing about just one of our priorities over the last few weeks.

That's why we need your help in making sure we have the funds to not just keep going, but to keep growing.

We're confident we can do so much. And we're confident we can do it with your support.
