NY's legislature passed what could become a first-in-the-nation data center moratorium. It is a testament to the power of organizers, residents, and frontline communities across NY, whose advocacy has helped secure this win. Time to sign, @GovKathyHochul!

Thank you to @SenatorHarckham for sponsoring the Packaging Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act (PRRIA, bill number S1464A), and for continuing to put people over plastic in the face of intense petrochemical industry opposition. We are grateful for your leadership!

Fossil fuel companies spent $15.9M in lobbying to stall clean-energy policies in NY. The result? Soaring bills, repeated rate hikes, and an affordability crisis — all while utilities’ profits climb. Read our new report with @strongforall & @twittlesis:

🚨 Congress and the federal administration are undermining our environmental protections. NY's Congressmembers must protect NY's air and water by defending the National Environmental Policy Act!

Our statement on the NYS budget. TL;DR, #NYHEAT is not in and the @NYSA_Majority must make #CleanerHeatLowerBills a priority before the end of session!

NY has made strides to reduce pollution & protect our environment. But extreme weather events are endangering upstate communities.
We need @GovKathyHochul to take action to deliver clean air and economic opportunity across the region.

Big checks for big polluters? 💸Not on our watch!
Stop Polluters Handouts Act puts an end to tax breaks for the fossil fuel industry.
That's $350M more for people in NY. With massive cuts from the feds, outdated corporate giveaways aren't justifiable.

The #NYHEAT Act = energy affordability, cleaner air & an end to the gas mandate forcing us to pay for new pipelines through our utility bills.
On March 19, we’re rallying in Albany to demand legislators put people over polluters. RSVP & get on a FREE BUS: bit.ly/mar19nyheat

Huge news! Congrats to @GovKathyHochul @LizKrueger @JeffreyDinowitz for getting this done, and to @NYPIRG and the activists who fought so damn hard to make it happen.
When we fight, we win!

🚨 New York is just inches away from a major climate victory: passing the Climate Change Superfund Act into law.
This would be a game-changer for holding polluters accountable and funding climate action.
Here’s why it matters. 🧵

Activists hold up festive “Hochul Climate Superfund Now” at the annual tree lighting ceremony @PlazaEvents — referring to the Climate Superfund Act they want @GovKathyHochul to sign by year’s end.

This is phenomenal reporting.
New documents show that oil companies knew as early as the *1950s* that they were causing massive pollution and climate change.
They went on to silence scientists and buried the truth. #MakePollutersPay

Today, @Public_Citizen and @fjp_org released a report showing Big Oil companies + CEOs could be *criminally* prosecuted for reckless endangerment. By increasing the risk of climate disasters, they're endangering lives. That's a crime. We should prosecute.🧵theguardian.com/us-news/2024…
