“Rebecca is ready to address the climate crisis by investing in renewable energy, creating jobs, and lowering energy costs in New Jersey.”

“Ensure New Jersey is a national leader in clean energy, biotech, AI development, and high-tech jobs, instead of cutting and rescinding funding intended to move our tech sector forward.”

“Lower energy costs across New Jersey by investing in clean, reliable, and domestic energy sources, so that families pay less and our communities are more energy resilient.”

“Clean air and clean water are essential to our way of life in New Jersey, but environmental deregulation and defunding threaten our ability to preserve the resources we have. With smart investments in renewable energy and real environmental stewardship, we can create jobs and lower energy costs while also tackling the climate crisis and ensuring New Jersey families have clean air and clean water for generations to come.”

“Incentivize the use of renewable and green energy, including solar installation and electric vehicles, and upgrade our power grid to meet increased energy demand through new technologies.”

“We need to pass a Green New Deal to slash greenhouse gas emissions, create good union jobs, finish the transition to renewable energy, and build infrastructure that can withstand the climate crisis. And we need to make the polluters who caused this mess pay to clean it up.”

“Fighting for our Future, not for Oil Companies’ Profits: We need to invest in our future, not outdated technologies and fossil fuel executives’ bottom lines. I’ll fight against federal authorization of new fossil fuel infrastructure and support regulatory changes that make it easier to build new renewable energy capacity.”

“I’m fighting to make Maryland a leader in clean energy, protect the natural resources that define our district, and lower energy costs. I’ll hold big polluters accountable, protect the Chesapeake Bay and our rivers, and ensure every community in our district has reliable, affordable energy.”

“Expand our clean energy footprint. Expand solar, offshore wind, and clean energy manufacturing to create good-paying union jobs here in Maryland.”

“Introduced legislation to reduce energy costs and accelerate the transition to clean energy in buildings, including: The Better Buildings Act, to cut fossil fuel dependence in new construction. The G.R.E.E.N. Act, creating a no-interest clean energy loan program to help nonprofits lower their energy bills.”

“Direct major federal investments in our infrastructure. Create thousands of good paying union jobs through major federal investments in infrastructure, transportation, clean energy, and water systems across Prince George’s County and Southern Maryland.”

“Invest in the industries of the future. Invest aggressively in emerging technologies including clean energy, artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing, and biotechnology so Maryland and the United States stay ahead of global competitors and create the next generation of good paying jobs.”

“Cracking down on utility monopolies and expanding Iowa’s clean energy economy to lower energy bills”

“We must also bring down costs and expand markets for Iowa family farms and renewable energy producers.”

“Invest in Iowa’s clean energy economy, and make America more energy-independent with lower costs”

“Prior to his terms as Mayor, Luke served as General Counsel to former Governor Dannel Malloy, where he helped enact Connecticut’s common sense gun laws, supported green energy initiatives, and made ending chronic homelessness among veterans a priority.”

“We need a massive commitment to more affordable, clean energy. Solar, wind, hydro, fuel cells, nuclear, and building better batteries.”

“We need to build quickly and at scale. That means streamlining red tape that makes it too hard and costly to build. It means using smart public investments to accelerate the transition. And it means modernizing our energy grid.”

“High costs are crushing almost everyone but the wealthiest Americans – housing, healthcare, electricity, groceries, childcare and eldercare. We need to build more housing, produce cheaper renewable energy, and make sure markets actually work to give consumers real choices.”

“In some areas, we need to make investments that the private sector won’t make on its own. For example, expanding the supply of clean energy, building a modern electric grid, and building 21st century transit.”

La Ley de Reducción de la Inflación fue un comienzo razonable, pero necesitamos ir más allá de restaurar los programas que Trump recortó. Necesitamos inversión pública ambiciosa en energía limpia junto con plazos ambiciosos para terminar con el uso de combustibles fósiles en toda la economía. También necesitamos poder construir infraestructura crucial de energía limpia más rápido para cumplir estas metas y debemos aprobar reformas en consecuencia.”

“No generation has faced an existential crisis as urgent and all-encompassing as climate change. The science is undeniable: we are out of time. Wildfires, floods, and extreme heat are already devastating communities across the country. We need to act now not only to mitigate future damage but to build resilience where disaster has already struck. That means fully funding renewable energy development, transitioning to a zero-emissions energy grid, modernizing our public transit systems, and investing in climate-resilient infrastructure. It also means holding polluters accountable and ending fossil fuel subsidies. It's time we take meaningful action on protecting the only planet we'll ever call home.”

“The case for transitioning to renewable energy has never been stronger; decades of research, technological innovation, and supply chain investments have made wind and solar energy more affordable than fossil fuel alternatives. And greening our energy system will make us healthier and better able to withstand oil market disruptions, while slowing the advance of climate change. Achieving a grid that is powered entirely by clean energy will require the full force of the federal government.”

“Create a national clean energy standard (CES). Alongside making generational investments in our energy system, Claire will work to pass a federally enforceable, national CES that requires utilities be powered by 100% clean energy. The CES will ensure high standards for worker, public, and environmental safety, and it will be paired with federal incentives that enable utilities and industry to meet the ambitious timeline that our climate demands.”
