💬 Christi Cabrera-Georgeson, NCL's Deputy Director, on #SB132: "Recent polling also shows that 79% of Nevadans want NCEF to continue to be funded."
💬 More than 25 organizations across #NV — faith leaders, clean energy experts, small businesses, and community groups — are standing together to support #SB132.
We all agree: investing in NCEF is a smart, proven way to lower bills and build a fair energy future. 💡#NVLeg
💡 In just 2 years, NCEF has helped:
➡️ Bring clean buses to rural schools
➡️ Lower bills for local businesses
➡️ Train Nevadans for clean energy jobs
But right now, it has no permanent state funding.
#SB132 would secure that, and bring more dollars home to #NV.
#SB132 invests $5M in the Nevada Clean Energy Fund (NCEF), helping Nevadans access low-cost loans, rebates, and technical assistance for:
✅ Solar panels
✅ Home weatherization
✅ Electric appliances
✅ Small business energy upgrades
📉 Energy bills are one of the biggest monthly expenses for #NV households.
But many folks, especially renters, small businesses, and rural families, can’t afford the upfront costs of making energy upgrades that would save them money long-term.
#SB132 helps fix that.
🧵 Struggling to keep up with rising energy bills? You’re not alone, and there's a way to help.
Today, #NVLeg is hearing #SB132, a bill that invests in clean energy savings for our families.
