Hey team,                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
When we sent out a survey a few weeks ago asking what issues are most important to you and your communities, you told us that your number one issue was overwhelmingly our climate.                                                                                                                
That’s why we’re so excited about Governor Murphy’s big announcement! Yesterday, Governor Murphy announced his new clean energy plan that aims for 100% clean energy by 2035 instead of 2050. That’s 15 years ahead of the original schedule, and 15 years closer to a greener economy.            
That’s a big deal – not just for our economy, not just for New Jersey’s natural resources, but also for future generations!
