It’s not every day that people power wins over big money, but that’s exactly what happened when this week #AB942 was amended to remove provisions that would have broken over 2 million solar contracts hurting renters, folks on a fixed income, seniors, etc, in the process. When we fight, we win! 🌞🔋💪
AB942 was effectively defeated in the California Senate Energy, Utilities, and Communications Committee yesterday!
#AB942 would have broken over 2 million #Solar contracts in the state of California, and was watered down in committee yesterday to not include rooftop solar customers!
🧵for thanks...
Even though #Solar is fighting daily battles in #California against the #Utilities and utility-sided LEGISLATORS, it has continued to prove itself time and time again. Bills like #AB942 plan to uproot the solar #Industry by directly affecting those who use #SolarEnergy.
THREAD 🧵
Lawmakers in California are considering a bill #AB942 authored by a former utility exec that would allow the state to break contracts it made with millions of residents who adopted rooftop solar.
. @senmcnerney.bsky.social I urge you to vote AGAINST AB 942. This bill, based on the debunked notion of a "cost-shift", will break over 2 million #Solar contracts in #California, which will cause utility rates to skyrocket. Please vote NO on #AB942, and urge your fellow senators to do the same.
. @jessearreguin.bsky.social @senatorashby.bsky.social @senatorgonzalez.bsky.social I urge you all to vote AGAINST AB 942. This bill, based on the debunked notion of a "cost-shift", will break over 2 million #Solar contracts in #California, which will cause utility rates to skyrocket. NO on #AB942.

The attack on rooftop solar continues; under AB 942, homeowners would lose benefit of 20-year solar contracts if they sell their home. We need to oppose #AB942 and defend rooftop solar. drive.google.com/file/d/1tW5s...

FACT: The California legislature is taking action on affordability. Passing #AB942 is a giant step. It will save Californians $3.6 billion on their electricity bills during the next two decades. $423 million in savings next year alone! #caleg
Here’s hoping #SenOchoaBogh votes against #AB942!
Really disappointed in @gavinnewsom.bsky.social @governor.ca.gov administration and its support for #AB942. Who are you? Bought and paid for by SoCal Edison maybe? Why should we pay for your failure to control them?
California lawmakers rush through bill to repeal rooftop solar contracts for millions of working families, small business owners. #AB942
So #AB942 passed last night in the Assembly... 46-14. Disgusting, deplorable numbers. I am ASHAMED of all the Assemblymembers who would rather put #Solar to the flame and break over 2 million contracts with Californians than stand up to the IOUs. #Energy #Policy #SolarEnergy #Renewables #CleanEnergy
This is by the wish of Lisa Calderon whose bill #AB942 would cut out over 2 MILLION #Solar Contracts in #California! CA has the 2nd highest average #Utilities Bills in the country, do we really want to cut #SolarEnergy out to make our costs increase??? Contact your legislator to vote NO on AB942!!
