Offshore wind has high coincidence with winter peaks, which makes it an extremely valuable resource. Plus, it is located right near New York City and Long Island, the major load centers in New York State. New York can no longer afford to rely on gas. bit.ly/4u9n0Pb @governor.ny.gov
Gollon: Offshore wind will keep Long Island utility bills stable
Offshore wind projects like Empire Wind and Sunrise Wind will help stabilize utility bills on Long Island by providing affordable, fixed-price electricity.

Renewable energy is the most practical way to reduce the rising costs and risks of climate change — while creating jobs and stabilizing energy prices. We must protect the Climate Law and keep moving forward as a state. #ClimateActionNow

We are the CLCPA lawsuit plaintiffs. Hochul is misrepresenting our case.
"With fossil fuel prices skyrocketing & NYers struggling to pay their utility bills & fill up their cars, implementing a program that raises revenue...would promote affordability, not hinder it."

Renewables have no fuel costs, and are procured using long-term contracts. They help stabilize electricity costs.
Fossil fuel prices are volatile and susceptible to price spikes caused by global market changes. Sticking to fossil fuels means unpredictable, unaffordable bills for NY.

Thank you @senatorharckham.bsky.social for your leadership on S.1464 - the Packaging Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act. Reducing toxics, plastics, and the overall waste that ends up in our landfills is essential for a healthier environment and for healthier communities. THANK YOU!

It's easy to feel overwhelmed right now – but remember: that is what they want! Make a quick call to your representatives asking them to STOP Trump and Musk's illegal scheme to freeze federal funding. Will you join me? Call 1-844-904-7117 to be connected.
