Did you hear us yesterday @governor.ny.gov? NYers testified for a #CapAndInvestNY program that serves people, not corporate polluters. Release the regulations now to advance a program that, done right, would deliver lower energy bills, cleaner air, and good, union jobs. #ReleaseTheRegs #FundClimate

Community members rally for stricter state environmental regulations Dozens of people gathered outside the Syracuse offices of the New York State DEC to call for the governor to release “cap and invest” regulations.

“With the money we get from our polluters, we’ll invest that into our communities. We’ll invest in housing, green energy, public transportation, and just get that money back into our wallets.” Now we just need @governor.ny.gov to #ReleasetheRegs

Opinion: Children, Parents & Grandparents Call for Hochul to Move Faster on Climate Action - City Limits "While I cannot always prevent pollution from entering my kids’ lungs, I can call on Gov. Hochul to move forward with cap-and-invest and pass strong climate legislation."

Our children shouldn’t bear the brunt of fossil fuel pollution. That’s why Gov. Hochul must move forward with cap & invest to protect our children & their futures. Why is this crucial policy to #FundClimate still on ice?
