ICYMI: At an EPW hearing today, @markey.senate.gov shared our memo on how a future administration could (and should) use the Trump administration's permitting tactics to block fossil fuel development, not clean energy.

Seems pretty simple... if this President can unilaterally block renewable infrastructure, a future President could do the same for fossil fuel projects.

Winter storms shouldn’t mean sky-high power bills and blackout risks. PJM’s failure to prioritize the build-out of reliable, clean energy has already hit families with double-digit bill increases this year—and now is putting lives at risk. www.reuters.com/business/ene...

Winterstorm Fern caused massive power outages for over a million Americans … but not for everyone. They were fine. Watch to see who stayed warm and safe.

Capture-and-kill tactics. Patent hoarding. Hacking journalists. According to MI AG Dana Nessel’s new lawsuit, these are some of the “cartel”-style tactics Big Oil has used to block clean energy and send costs for Michigan families sky-high. Thanks to @miattygen.bsky.social for fighting back 💪

Evergreen's senior buildings policy lead @sirnatony.bsky.social explains how Maryland is lowering energy bills for working families—and slashing pollution—by upgrading homes with heat pumps on the newest episode of Maryland Energy Talk 🎧👇

Let’s be clear: this wasn’t a failure to deliver. When faced with a choice between actions that could lower costs for working families or enriching himself and his wealthy allies, Trump chose the latter. Every time. That choice defines his presidency.

@mikiesherrill.bsky.social said she’d take on PJM if elected. Today, she’s doing exactly that. Gov. Sherrill's day-one energy EOs provide immediate relief for NJ ratepayers while kickstarting systemic reforms needed for a lower-cost, cleaner energy system. www.evergreenaction.com/press/evergr...

"RGGI generated hundreds of millions of dollars for VA — dollars that went directly to flood mitigation, energy efficiency programs, and lowering bills for families who need help most." Thank you, @abigailspanberger.com for knowing RGGI delivers cost-savings to working Virginians.

Trump's EPA says it will stop calculating the public health value of air pollution regulations, instead solely focusing on costs to Big Business. Like the rest of his deregulatory agenda, it's a gift for corporate donors and a disaster for the rest of us.

CT and RI families are already paying some of the highest electricity prices in the country. It made no sense to ban them from accessing the cheap, clean energy resources just off their coastline.

Wisconsin Republicans just released a data center bill that would block access to cheaper, faster clean power. Why limit the options that would protect consumers from rising costs, unless you don’t actually care about affordability?

Why are Realtor associations fighting clean air standards that lower bills & reduce pollution? Follow the money! Check out this @sierraclub.org blog that breaks down fossil fuel ties and political influence behind the opposition: www.sierraclub.org/articles/202...

🚨New analysis from @SynapseEnergy: Virginian families could save $712 a year on their energy bills by 2030 with these key reforms. Here's how they do it ⬇️ collaborative.evergreenaction.com/memos/virgin...

And from @evergreenaction.bsky.social, here's a policy package to bring down energy costs in New Jersey: 1. Getting clean energy projects connected to the grid 2. Data centers supplying their own affordable, clean energy 3. Adopting smart EV charging programs 4. Reining in utility profit margins

🚨New analysis from @synapseenergy.bsky.social: State leaders can save New Jersey families $467 a year on their energy bills by 2030 with these key reforms. Here's how they do it ⬇️ @nrdc.org collaborative.evergreenaction.com/memos/new-je...

NEW: Gov. Shapiro just cut a bad deal with Senate Republicans—abandoning Pennsylvania’s participation in Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) and walking away from our strongest tool to cut pollution, lower energy bills, and create jobs. #PAleg www.evergreenaction.com/press/shapir...

Thank you @vanhollen.senate.gov, @beyer.house.gov and Members of Congress urging PJM to shield families from skyrocketing energy costs driven by data center growth and PJM’s mismanagement. PJM must put consumers first—not utility profits

Imagine this: Georgia—a state Trump won in 2024— holds two elections just about electricity prices. Democrats run on lowering costs through clean energy. And they both win—by 20 points. First time Democrats have done that in 20 years. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

How can states keep making progress on sustainable transportation—even as the Trump admin rolls back climate action? Check out the latest episode of @volts.wtf and hear Evergreen’s senior transportation policy lead Liya Recthman dive into the tools and strategies at states' disposal.

Voters in VA and NJ sent a clear message: they’re done paying the price for politicians who put corporate profits ahead of people. We look forward to working with @mikiesherrill.bsky.social and @abigailspanberger.com as they move to cut costs for families through homegrown, clean energy.

"We're going to produce more energy, and we're going to lower costs—and we're going to do that by producing more energy here in Virginia." That's the blueprint for how Democrat win big: connect clean energy to lower costs and homegrown power. Congratulations @abigailspanberger.com 🎉

The same tech giants that are forcing you and me to pay to power their data centers through our electric bill apparently have no problem paying for Donald Trump to tear down parts of the White House so he can build a $300 million ballroom for himself.

The economics are clear: The push to build fossil fuels to power data centers is going to hurt people and one way to address that harm is by demanding these centers be built with clean, cheap, fast-to-build energy sources like wind and solar. From @profgalloway.com

Big news from our small but mighty team: we have officially ratified our first union contract! 💚 @evergreenaction.bsky.social fights for a just, thriving clean energy future alongside labor—and we’re proud to live those values ourselves. A strong labor movement starts at home!

Maryland must take action to provide clean heat and healthy homes. Read the latest from @marylandmatters about how @govwesmoore can do just that by finalizing the Clean Heat Rules. marylandmatters.org/2025/10/17/c...

We're proud to be one of the 3,700+ nonprofits who signed on to this letter condemning the Trump administration’s illegal attacks on free speech. He wants to intimidate and silence dissent—but we will all continue to fight back.

Families need relief. Communities need lower power bills. Instead of working across the aisle to deliver help, Republicans shut down the government so that Trump could keep abusing power.

Thank you to our speakers & all who joined today’s Climate Week panel with Three Cairns Group on the success of congestion pricing. Congestion relief is a reminder that change can take time, but with support from leaders across government, business, advocacy and more—it’s worth the wait.

Authoritarians fear organized workers✊ This Labor Day, we’re proud our Evergreen staff are unionized—because strong unions are how we confront the climate crisis, defend democracy, and build a better future.

Time is short for households to take advantage of home energy credits before the end of the year. It's also time for states to step up and fill the gap in making heat pumps affordable for everyone. My latest on the @evergreenaction.bsky.social blog. evergreenaction.com/blog/the-hea...

Republicans really be like: Don't Blame Me (for your higher energy prices)

Trump’s own Energy Secretary admitted the truth: “We’re going to get blamed.” And he’s right. Trump’s war on clean energy is driving electricity bills up for working families—while padding fossil fuel profits. 🧵

Trump’s EPA is trying to rip rooftop solar funding from low-income families––breaking the law and hiking energy costs to keep fossil fuel CEOs happy. As record heat and data centers strain the grid, they’re sabotaging the fastest, cheapest power we have. www.evergreenaction.com/press/trumps...

While Trump schmoozes with AI execs at the Pennsylvania Energy & Innovation Summit, don’t forget: his energy agenda is driving up YOUR bills by undermining the clean, reliable power we need to meet growing demand from big tech. All talk, no watts.
