Dear John,
Frontline Communities Are Leading the Way!
While the Trump administration continues to attack working-class families, migrants, and democracy itself, frontline communities are forging ahead with bold new paths toward justice and resilience that benefit everyone.
In Brooklyn, NY, UPROSE, a Climate Justice Alliance member group, is proving that community power can deliver real victories. Weâre celebrating the construction kick-off of Sunset Park SolarâNew York Cityâs first-ever community-led solar projectâon the rooftop of the Brooklyn Army Terminal.
This milestone was made possible through the unshakable vision and determination of UPROSE, along with support from [Reinvest in Our Power]([link removed]), a Climate Justice Alliance-led collaborative effort to shift capital and governance from extractive to regenerative systems.

Led by [UPROSE]([link removed]) in partnership with Working Power, this project is more than solar panelsâitâs a milestone for energy democracy, a model where frontline communities control the clean energy transition.
Sunset Park Solar features a 725 kW rooftop array that will deliver discounted electricity to local residents and small businessesâwhile reinvesting directly into the Sunset Park neighborhood. Itâs a declaration of energy equity, community ownership, and local resilience.
For over 50 years, UPROSEâBrooklynâs oldest Latino-led community organization focused on climate justiceâhas been a force in this movement. With Working Power, theyâre pioneering a new model of community ownership, ensuring that the benefits of solar energy stay in the hands of those who live and work in Sunset Parkânot distant corporations.
Weâre honored to stand with UPROSE and all frontline communities who are showing whatâs possible when we lead with justice.
Power to the people. Energy for the future.
