Friend, Governor Shapiro has signed a state budget that officially blocks Pennsylvania from joining the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI), the most important climate policy available to us at the state level.
The deal is done, and Pennsylvania’s clean energy future was traded away behind closed doors.
This is more than a setback. It’s a massive handout to polluters at the exact moment our communities need bold climate action the most.
Unlike other states that entered RGGI years ago and cut energy bills by 5.7% and saved residents $13.5 billion, Pennsylvania is now stuck on the sidelines.1
People will feel this. Communities will pay for this. And polluters will profit from it.
Now our team is shifting into full accountability mode. No more letting polluters call the shots. No more hoping climate action “comes next year.”
We are launching an emergency campaign to hold the Governor and legislature accountable for this failure — and force climate action back onto the agenda: - 🔥 Hard-hitting paid ads demanding action
- 📣 Organizing in key districts to demand change
- 🏛️ Legislative pressure in Harrisburg to to get a plan for a clean energy future moving immediately
But here’s the truth: this fight wasn’t in our budget. After the election, every dollar left is already at work — and to launch this campaign at scale, we need your help right now.
Can you rush an urgent gift of $35.00 right now to fuel our accountability campaign and keep PA’s climate future alive? |
Let’s be clear about what this terrible budget deal means: - Over $1 BILLION every year in clean-energy investments — gone.
- Families lose access to programs that could have lowered already out-of-control electric bills.
-
Polluters win, keeping profits high while our air, water, and communities suffer.
We can’t let polluters get the last word.
We can’t let our leaders forget who they’re supposed to fight for.
Your support right now ensures that our leaders know we are watching, organizing, mobilizing, and demanding better.
Please rush an emergency donation of $35.00 to fight back now. |
