Hi Friend, We should still be celebrating last week’s wins at the ballot box — but instead, we’re facing a NEW and URGENT crisis.
A Republican plan to take Pennsylvania out of a program that would reduce climate-warming carbon pollution and bring over a BILLION dollars into our communities is closer to passing than ever before.
They’re holding the state budget hostage to make it happen. And shockingly, their plan might succeed.
This is NOT a drill.
Governor Shapiro and the pro-environment majority in the State House who we helped elect SHOULD be holding the line — but political pressure and shady back-room deals are instead putting RGGI on the chopping block, even among our allies and friends.
CVPA is launching an 🆘 EMERGENCY MOBILIZATION to stop this attack 🆘 — paid ads, digital outreach, and candid conversations behind the scenes to hold lawmakers accountable. But this unexpected fight wasn’t in our budget — especially after a big Election Day spend — and we need you to stand with us today to make this full court press a reality.
Can you rush an urgent gift of $25.00 to help keep Pennsylvania in RGGI and protect PA’s clean air, health, and future?

Leaving RGGI would be disastrous for PA: -
We would walk away from BILLIONS of dollars in clean energy investments.
- It would raise electricity costs EVEN MORE for Pennsylvania families who are already struggling.
-
And it would let dirty energy CEOs keep polluting while raking in record profits.
Meanwhile, states that stay in RGGI have already cut energy bills by 5.7% and saved residents $13.5 billion through clean-energy programs.
That’s what Pennsylvania stands to lose — unless we fight back NOW.
We’re reasonable; we know that passing a state budget requires negotiation and compromise. But denying Pennsylvania the chance to access BILLIONS of dollars for years to come makes NO sense — especially as the climate crisis escalates and energy prices hit record highs.
Your support right now will help us mobilize thousands of Pennsylvanians, keep pressure on Harrisburg, and stop this reckless sell-out of Pennsylvanians to big polluters. Can you rush an emergency donation right of $25.00 now? |
