Across the #GreatLakes, restoration efforts are starting to work. Some lakes are bouncing back. But #LakeErie is still struggling with harmful algal blooms that threaten drinking water and close beaches each summer https://www.tiktok.com/@conservationpa/video/7616113778442194207

“If [data centers] are coming, we must have appropriate environmental regulations to protect our air quality, to protect our water sources, and to make sure that we’re using Pennsylvania workers. We will need to have legislation.” https://loom.ly/Vu5Vadg

If it feels like the ultra-wealthy have too much influence in politics, the numbers back it up: tiny group of billionaire families now bankrolls nearly one out of every five dollars spent in federal elections. https://loom.ly/zcdgxBM

Solar and wind farms can be built in just one year, unlike gas plants which can take up to 7 years! The path forward is clear. We need more energy right now. https://loom.ly/Pve-28s

We were thrilled to join @healthylakes.org in Washington DC last week for their annual Great Lakes Day! Cooperation across the Great Lakes is critical to getting our elected officials to protect the waters that make PA, & the entire Great Lakes region, incredible.

Political & Legislative Director, Katie, joined a panel about labor’s vision for PA’s energy future — including how policies can support good union jobs, affordable energy, & strong communities as the state transitions to cleaner power @kleinmanenergy.bsky.social

New gas plants cost 30–60% more to produce the same electricity as renewables. And they lock us into higher costs for decades. That’s not affordability.

Dearest gentle reader, PA ranks 49th in clean energy investment while electricity bills keep climbing. Join us in Harrisburg for Environmental Lobby Day on May 4 and help demand lower energy bills and real clean energy solutions: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8CQckDs/

While Pennsylvanians struggle to make ends meet, PA's state senate is stalling on EVERY piece of pro-environment legislation. PA families are facing an affordability crisis - enough is enough. #PAPolitics #CleanEnergy #Affordability

U.S. House Republicans passed their disastrous voter suppression bill that will make it harder for millions of Americans like you to vote and have their voices heard. Urge PA's senators to vote NO: https://loom.ly/kVG4qCM

At the Lehigh Valley Breathes event, residents learned that data collection is done — now organizers are working to make the findings accessible to everyone. Hosted by the League of Women Voters and the Allentown EAC, the event sparked conversations about pollution from warehouses and data centers.

As the rapid growth of data centers strains the grid and drives up electricity costs, most people in Pennsylvania want the state to lead on clean, affordable energy. The biggest users must pay their fair share and support new clean energy to meet rising demands and keep the lights on for everyone.

Higher electric bills. Rising costs everywhere. More uncertainty about what comes next. Pennsylvanians need results now. Affordability can’t wait until next year. It has to happen in this #PAbudget. https://loom.ly/aX8SaHc

Don't miss out on this great conversation -- reserve your spot now! https://loom.ly/JS22FQQ

‘Get Stuff Done’: Pennsylvania Lawmakers Need to Pass Legislation to Lower Energy Costs & Protect Our Health| As seen too often in Harrisburg, a vision is not a policy, & a proposal is not progress until it is signed into law, writes @conservationpa.bsky.social of PA Executive Director Molly Parzen.

Dirty air kills. This is why Trump's assault on environmental safeguards is so harmful and why lawmakers in PA need to step up. https://www.wesa.fm/environment-energy/2026-02-24/pittsburgh-study-air-pollution-deaths-2019? #Pennsylvania #Pittsburgh #AirPollution

CVPA & @pennfuture.bsky.social were thrilled to host Erie Green Drinks: Wetlands Appreciation Night with our friends and advocates. Wetlands are the unsung hero ecosystem and there's no better time to celebrate them than with advocates from across our community.

Voter ID solves a problem that doesn't exist. Its intent is to kick voters off the rolls -- voters who typically vote against the lawmakers backing this overhaul. https://www.votebeat.org/2026/02/16/save-america-act-passes-house-proof-of-citizenship-register-vote-photo-id/

PA elected officials work hard. A human error occurred in Chester County in last year's election, a mistake that county officials raced to correct so everyone who wanted to could cast a ballot. Now Sen McCormick has unfairly attacked them, in service to Donald Trump. https://bit.ly/4aJRpea

Spoke with residents in Wilkes-Barre yesterday about @pennfuture.bsky.social & @conservationpa.bsky.social's Energy Affordability Agenda- a pathway for legislators to help lower our insanely high energy bills. Read here: www.timesleader.com/news/1733065...

At the “Power to the People” roundtable, @pennfuture.bsky.social’s Annie Regan laid out the need for our Energy Affordability Agenda plainly: there are thousands of ready-to-go clean energy projects that would bring costs down. They’re just being blocked from connecting to the grid.

There are over 2,500 municipalities in Pennsylvania. Many are small, rural towns with limited staff and tight budgets. Meanwhile, billion-dollar developers show up with teams of attorneys. Small towns deserve backup. That’s what this bill provides. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8xJhsrn/

The SAVE Act would make voting harder for millions of Americans. It’s based on the lie that noncitizens routinely vote in our elections — the truth is that noncitizen voting is already illegal and vanishingly rare. bit.ly/4qS8wBr

Jesse Jackson dedicated his life to justice, equality, and labor rights that lifted working families up across this country. His fight helped shape the union movement we carry forward today. A voice for justice. A life of service. Rest in power. #BlackHistoryMonth #CivilRights #jessejackson
