Nothing like opening your electric bill to inspire a deep dive into winter storm rates, grid demand, and why costs keep climbing.

Spoiler: exploding energy demand from data centers is part of the conversation lawmakers need to be having right now.

🫨 89% of detached homes in today’s stock are under-insulated. And inefficient homes—disproportionately housing lower-income residents—will likely see more dramatic price spikes. https://bit.ly/4aeyA2p

Gov. Shapiro’s budget invests in clean energy, holds utility companies accountable, sets strict rules for data centers, and modernizes our grid.

We trust Punxsutawney Phil to predict winter.
We trust scientists to guide environmental policy.
It’s okay to believe in both — the PA Senate just needs to remember the difference.

A State House committee just moved a bill that would put the Public Utility Commission in charge of regulating large data centers so that big tech doesn’t profit while families struggle to keep the lights on. Can you tell your state rep to help pass this bill?

Harrisburg will start the process of creating a budget for PA, & it must tackle cost of living – with zero exceptions.

The state legislature isn’t known for passing a budget on time, so we need to show up loud out of the gate. Act now:
