Wisconsin’s energy bills are rising. Fair, clean energy policies can bring them down. Our new playbook with @NRDC shows how making data centers pay their share and investing in clean energy could save families $380 by 2028 and $4,000+ by 2040. evergreencollaborative.com/p…

A historic night for energy affordability in Wisconsin. Voters elected Governor-elect @DavidCCrowley and pro-climate majorities in the Assembly and Senate. Now the state holds the levers to make data centers cover their own costs and lower bills for families.

Rising energy costs were on the ballot in PA, and voters chose leaders ready to hold Big Tech accountable. With pro-climate majorities holding both legislative chambers for the first time in decades, now is the time to deliver real relief for Pennsylvanians.

Congratulations to Gov-elect @JocelynBenson- another great candidate who ran on a people-first platform focused on lowering costs, making government work better and delivering for everyday ppl. Let's build cleaner cheaper energy and a better transportation system in MI!

Governor-elect @DavidCCrowley ran on cutting energy costs and making Big Tech pay its own way. Wisconsin voters said yes. In the next legislative session, data centers should pay their fair share, not working families. We're ready to get to work.

I’ve known Rob for years, and I can tell you this: He’s going to be a fantastic governor. Now, Iowa has a golden opportunity: power new demand with homegrown, clean wind energy without sending the bill to families. Rob Sand is ready to seize that opportunity.
BREAKING: @RobSandIA has won Iowa’s race for governor. His win creates an opportunity to lower energy costs and tackle Iowa’s water quality crisis so families can breathe easier and trust the water coming out of their taps.

Looking like Dems will take control of the Georgia PSC.
Calling it. Dems will flip Georgia's utility commission for the first time in 30 years. Utility commission regulates the state's power giants like Georgia Power and Atlanta Gas Light #gapol

Maryland voters just re-elected @GovWesMoore to a second term, rejecting Dan Cox’s dirty coal and fossil-fuel powered agenda in favor of a future built on cheap, clean energy. We look forward to working with the governor to deliver on this mandate and lower bills for Marylanders.

A pro-climate-action majority in the US House has a mandate to fix what the Trump administration promised but failed to deliver on – lower energy costs. No more sabotaging clean energy - the cheapest and fastest-to-build electricity on the planet.

New Yorkers rejected a pro-data center, dirty fossil fuel, Trump-backed agenda today by giving @GovKathyHochul a second term. We look forward to continued work with the governor to lower utility bills, hold Big Tech accountable, and get more cheap, clean power on the grid fast.

Pennsylvanians voted to give @GovernorShapiro a second term in office, sending a strong message that now is not the time to go backwards on PA’s energy future. We look forward to working with the governor to deliver cheap, clean energy for residents throughout the Commonwealth.

This campaign is taking on the powerful with three simple ideas: money out of politics, money in your pocket, and Medicare for All. Watch our closing ad.

I can't believe he actually said this! “‘President Trump is talking about all the money they’re making while people are suffering at the pump.’ That’ll be the headline. But I said, ‘I don’t give a damn. I’m gonna say it. We’re making a freaking fortune.’” Donald Trump, Oct. 24

NEW: "The heavier energy burden on American consumers is mostly because of the country’s reliance on oil over other sustainable means of energy" - $471 more spent on fuel since beginning of the Iran war (8x global average) - Iran war has cost U.S. households about $2,000

Families are struggling with home energy bills and need solutions now. But outdated electricity rates are overcharging customers who use efficient heat pumps--$359/yr for BGE customers. Fairer rates would save people real $$. evergreencollaborative.com/p…

Fun fact: your utility can charge you for the cost of arguing for its own rate hike. @ClimateTown explains why your power bill is broken: youtube.com/watch?v=3fDGcZ8q…
