Pennsylvanians Demand Clean Air and Climate Action

Pennsylvania voters made it apparent that they want climate action and a healthy environment when they rejected climate denier Doug Mastriano as governor and flipped the state House to a pro-climate majority last November.

Now, Pennsylvania has the chance to finally participate in RGGI, which will save Pennsylvanians hundreds of millions of dollars on their energy bills, create thousands of new jobs in the booming clean energy sector, and improve public health by reducing air pollution.

Urge Governor-elect Josh Shapiro to support Pennsylvania’s participation in the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI).

Urge Governor-elect Josh Shapiro to fulfill his mandate to invest in clean air and a clean energy economy by supporting Pennsylvania’s participation in the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI).

Pennsylvanians demanc clean air and climate action now!

Nearly two-thirds of Pennsylvanian voters think we need to do more to protect our air, water, and climate from oil and gas pollution. And voters made that apparent when they rejected climate denier Doug Mastriano as governor last November.

With Democrats in control of the state House and Governor-elect Shapiro set to take office, we have an unprecedented chance to break through the climate action gridlock in Pennsylvania — and to finally participate in RGGI.

RGGI will save Pennsylvanians hundreds of millions of dollars on their energy bills, create thousands of new jobs in the booming clean energy sector, and improve public health by reducing air pollution.

Subject We elected you to take climate action. Support participation in RGGI.

Dear Governor-elect Shapiro,

Message Body

I am in the majority of Pennsylvanians who think we need to do more to protect our air, water, and climate from oil and gas pollution, and I’m writing to urge you to support our state’s participation in the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI).

Voters elected YOU over climate denier Doug Mastriano and flipped the state House because we’re tired of anti-climate lawmakers who refuse to take action to clean up our air and invest in a clean energy economy. Now, we’re asking that you fulfill your mandate to make sure Pennsylvanians have a healthy environment and a healthy economy.

You can fulfill this mandate by supporting Pennsylvania’s participation in RGGI. Other participating states have already seen huge benefits:

-Residents have saved hundreds of millions of dollars on their energy bills 
-Thousands of new jobs have been created in the booming clean energy sector 
-Public health has improved because of a reduction in air pollution

Now it’s our turn to reap the benefits of RGGI.

Thank you.
