Thank you Senator for standing up for our climate. Our kids need a future.

🚨 DEFEND OUR CLIMATE LAW! Join @nypirg.bsky.social and our allies on 3/25 in Albany to urge state lawmakers to defend and implement the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act, which will deliver energy affordability and real climate solutions for NY. 🌍 RSVP: docs.google.com/forms/d/1ctQ...

Organizations & Indigenous leaders are calling on @governor.ny.gov to reject new nuclear in NY.

The Haudenosaunee Environmental Task Force & 200 advocacy groups say the state should invest in renewables & energy efficiency, not costly new reactors. bit.ly/4bfc6yR & bit.ly/4upI83Q

Keep N.Y.’s climate law; it is working The price of natural gas is skyrocketing, something that New Yorkers getting their home heating and electric bills after this winter’s cold snap know all too well. Unaffordable rate hikes have been…

🚨 NYDN: @senatorharckham.bsky.social Sen. Liz Krueger, and Sen. Kevin Parker stand up for NY's climate commitments and put @governor.ny.gov on blast. The climate law isn't making energy prices spike — that would be the fossil-fueled status quo.

March 5, 2026 The Honorable Kathy Hochul Governor of New York State NY State Capitol Building Albany, NY 12224 Re: Upholding New York’s Leadership in the Fight Against Climate Change Dear Governor Hochul, At a time when the Trump Administration is doing everything possible to tear down decades of progress in the fight against climate change, it is incumbent on states like New York to reject this new wave of climate denial and put forward bold policies that will save New Yorkers money, reduce pollution, and protect a livable climate for our constituents and our children and grandchildren. That is why we, the undersigned senators, categorically oppose any effort to rollback New York’s nation-leading climate law, the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act, and urge you to stand strong in the face of misinformation that seeks to blame the CLCPA for the energy affordability crisis that fossil fuels have created. Climate change remains one of the greatest threats that our constituents - and societies across the globe - have ever faced. New Yorkers are already living through extreme weather events that run the gamut from searing heat waves to Arctic cold snaps, and they are already paying the price1, with their dollars, their homes, their health, and even their lives. The climate crisis is driving up the cost of home insurance, of health care, of groceries, and of countless other daily necessities2, and every delay in taking action will only drive those costs even higher. Confronting this crisis is a generational task and a legacy issue for every elected official, and it is inseparable from any credible effort to address the high cost of living. At the same time, there is no question that we must address energy affordability, capacity, and reliability. But while President Trump and the fossil fuel industry want New Yorkers to believe that we must choose between those needs and climate action, nothing could be further from the truth. The recent three-page memo from…

not include any price guardrails, with a completely unrealistic carbon price34. As such, the analysis simply cannot be treated as a serious contribution to the debate. In reality, rolling back the CLCPA will not save our constituents money because it is not the cause of increasing costs. It is the fossil fuel status quo56 that has created the affordability crisis New Yorkers are now suffering from, and it is bold action to deliver renewable energy and energy efficiency that will give them relief, saving money for individuals in the immediate-term and for all utility customers in the medium- and long-term7. When it comes to energy generation capacity, renewables can be deployed cheaply and quickly to meet our needs8. And over the last year, through heat waves and polar vortexes9, renewables have proven that they add much-needed reliability10 to the grid, reducing price spikes in the process, like those driven by wars in Europe and the Middle East. Between us we carry significant legislation on a broad number of policies large and small that will reduce New Yorkers’ costs and move us toward our science-based climate targets. We stand ready to work with you and your administration to implement comprehensive climate policies that truly meet the needs of this moment – but we cannot support abandoning our commitment to climate progress.

Your Utility Bill Keeps Going Up. Could The NY Heat Bill Stop It? Supporters of the NY Heat Act say it's a solution to New Yorkers' rising energy bills by curbing the expansion of gas infrastructure

“Our rent is too damn high in the first place and our utility bill shouldn’t be an additional burden.” bit.ly/3XhH977

Stop the wealth hoarding. Billionaires should not exist. Trump is working with Musk - who is “worth” 380 billion dollars - to shut down jobs and take money from the poor and middle class and give it to the rich. If it sounds unbelievable and evil, it is.
