Thanks to a state program, a Minnesota school district will save $1 million over 40 years by installing solar on four buildings. Clean energy and state leadership pays off for schools, students, and families.

The federal government is cutting back support for clean energy—and experts say that could make insurance even more expensive. When we slow down climate action, families pay the price.

This new 170-home community in Ann Arbor runs on solar, storage, geothermal, and heat pumps—not fossil fuels. Most residents have near-zero or even negative energy bills. All-electric, net-zero neighborhoods like this are the future.

The federal government’s reckless energy policies are killing jobs and raising costs. Michigan just lost a $210 million EV battery plant—and 600 good-paying jobs—because of the chaos they’re causing. This is what’s at stake. We need leaders who will build the clean energy future, not block it.

New projections show U.S. solar deployment could drop 21% by 2030—thanks to the federal rollback of wind and solar tax credits. That means higher costs for families at a time when energy prices are already rising. This is the real cost of anti-climate policy.

EV sales are surging in Minnesota as families rush to claim federal tax credits before they expire. Clean transportation is popular, practical, and under threat. We’re electing state and local leaders who will keep the momentum going—no matter what happens in DC.

Big win in Lancaster County: the Board just approved zoning to allow battery storage projects. This is what happens when you elect climate champions. They deliver real results.

Michigan must lead on clean energy to cut bills and pollution. If carbon capture moves forward, it needs strict guardrails—protecting health, local voices, and our environment.

New analysis confirms it: EVs produce fewer emissions than gas cars—even when you account for battery production, cold weather, and coal-heavy grids. That’s why we elect leaders who invest in clean transportation and make EVs accessible to everyone.

Even when federal policies create barriers, local action keeps moving us forward. Community solar + local leadership = lower bills, cleaner air, and real climate solutions where families need them most. 🌱⚡ #localclimateaction #localclimate #climateactionnow @climatecabinet.org

Carbon Neutral! When a community balances the greenhouse gases it puts into the air with the same amount removed. Cities can pass climate action plans that set carbon neutrality goals by investing in public transit. 🌱 #climatepolitics #climatepolicy #climateeducation @climatecabinet.org

Cities may have to scrap planned solar projects after the EPA announced it’s ending the $7 billion Solar for All program—funding meant to bring clean energy to low-income families. Anti-climate policies hurt real people. This is what’s at stake every election cycle.

Federal attacks are making it harder for low-income families to access the savings from solar—but local leaders have the power to forge a path forward anyway With community solar and on-site arrays, developers and local governments can still cut bills and expand clean energy where it’s needed most

Let’s be real. Walking back climate goals is a big step in the wrong direction. And federal attacks on wind and solar are only making things worse. But clean energy is still growing and won’t go away. That’s why we need state leaders who will keep pushing forward no matter what.

Extreme heat kills thousands. North Carolina’s state health dept built its own alert system because federal warnings come too late. That’s state & local gov in action, but Trump’s climate cuts put it at risk. www.eenews.net/articles/hea...

Five years ago, Virginia made history with the Clean Economy Act and paved the way for cleaner, more reliable, more affordable energy. As demand grows and DC drives up costs, implementing the VCEA is more critical than ever to keep energy affordable for Virginians

Michigan homeowners are racing to install rooftop solar before a 30% federal tax credit disappears—all because our federal government is actively dismantling climate progress. All this will do is increase costs and we need state leaders to step up and increase funding for clean energy access.

Minnesota just approved its first stand-alone battery storage project to store surplus wind & solar for hours. That means more reliable power, less fossil fuel, and progress toward clean energy goals. This is what state leadership looks like. www.mprnews.org/story/2025/0...

Michigan will need more than 66,000 new EV chargers to meet growing demand. Reaching that scale will take smart, data-driven planning—and bold investments in clean transportation that lower emissions, create jobs, and ensure every community benefits

Minnesota is standing up for clean energy and lower energy bills. Minnesotans who qualify for the state's Solar for All program save $300 on their energy bills, but now the Trump administration is trying to claw back that funding.

Extreme heat is already one of the deadliest climate threats, and it will only get worse. Cities and states must act to protect our seniors, kids, and working families. insideclimatenews.org/news/1708202...

Virginia just lost $156 million in solar funding for working people. That is clean energy and lower bills ripped away from families—because of active disregard from the federal government.

Big climate win in Michigan! Grand Rapids — Michigan’s 2nd-largest city — just passed its first Climate Action & Adaptation Plan. Huge thanks to our endorsed climate champs AliciaMarie Belchak, Marshall Kilgore & David LaGrand for making it happen!

Geothermal heating & cooling were among the few projects that survived last month’s federal cuts — the tax credits remain intact. State and local leaders should build on this foundation and ensure we’re investing in the clean energy industries needed to cut our reliance on fossil fuels

Federal attacks on renewable energy aren’t just short-sighted—they’re dangerous for working families in Virginia and across the nation. States must defend clean power, protect jobs, and uphold our climate commitments www.pilotonline.com/2025/08/09/e...

This week, Arizona's Public Service Commission moved to eliminate the state's 15% clean energy standard. Next year, 2 of the 5 people who took this vote are up for re-election.

Breaking: Arizona's utility commission just took the first step to gut the state's clean energy standards. It would kill clean jobs, worsen air quality, and raise utility bills for people across the state. www.kjzz.org/politics/202...

Nearly a year after Hurricane Helene devastated western NC, farms and homes are on the brink of recovery. The Renew NC home repair program has cleared a key federal hurdle — now let’s get working people the relief they need and deserve

Illinois has the bill to fix and fund transit—built on 1,600 hours of outreach and planning. As Amy Rynell of IL’s @atalliance.bsky.social‬ warns, we must pass it now before devastating cuts hit.

Arizona Public Service is prioritizing pollution profits and abandoning its zero-carbon by 2050 goal. Solar is now 41% cheaper than new gas plants—so why delay? We need real accountability to protect our climate and ratepayers and a plan you can measure azpha.org/2025/08/12/a...

We couldn’t agree more, local-level climate action is essential! 💪 #adaptation #climatepolicy #cities

A church in Detroit—a city long burdened by pollution—is now paying just 86¢ a month for electricity after going solar. A state agency even helped them get a full tax refund. That’s what real climate policy looks like: savings and smart investment in the communities that need it the most

Anti-climate politicians will do literally anything to avoid taking responsibility for their actions.

Heading to Netroots? Don’t miss our panel on state climate action. With the federal gov actively dismantling progress, state & local leadership is more urgent than ever. Learn how we win pro-climate majorities, pass bold policies & take on fossil fuel power through 2030

@climatecabinet.org endorses candidates with an “outsized climate impact.” In Cleveland, we’re creating pathways into good jobs in green industries; cleaning up the air by planting trees & expanding green space; and promoting transportation alternatives. I appreciate the support!

We love to hear it! Switching to solar energy is not only good for working conditions & operations, it also benefits our Earth by: ☀️ Improving air quality ☀️ Reducing carbon emissions ☀️ Conserving valuable resources #cities #climatepolicy #sustainability

The federal government is slamming the brakes on climate progress. That makes state and local leadership the front line in the fight to cut pollution and build a livable future. And right now, we’ve got critical climate battlegrounds.

Don’t take it from me, take it from @jigarshahdc.bsky.social 👀

This was a nice thing to start the day with!

We agree with @jigarshahdc.bsky.social completely 😎

If anti-climate politicians move ahead to weaken NC’s climate goals, the state will lose more than 50,000 jobs per year and at least $47.2 billion to build new power plants. We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: these are not just numbers, there are the livelihoods of working families.

Kerr County’s deadly flood wasn’t a fluke. It’s a preview of what’s coming. Extreme weather is accelerating. We need state & local leaders who’ll invest in resilient infrastructure and act on climate before the next disaster hits.

With a hostile federal government, states must step up—just like they did during Trump’s first term, and then some. That means building climate-resilient infrastructure, and investing in clean energy. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/07/20/a...

Most climate election dollars go to federal races. But local races unlock clean energy that creates jobs, cuts emissions, and saves families money. Our candidates get that—and that’s why we invest early in under-the-radar, high-impact races. secure.actblue.com/donate/ccaf

Clean energy isn’t a distant dream — it’s happening now in city halls. That’s because 75% of our climate commitments can be decided by state and local officials. We’re electing climate champions to those local seats to push solar, storage, and grid upgrades on the ground.

Even as Trump’s tax & budget bill cuts solar and EV credits, Illinois has the opportunity to pass a new clean energy package to give homes and businesses a buffer. State leadership is more critical than ever in the face of federal attacks.
