The Legislature passed the 100-ft Rule Repeal. Now it’s time for
@governor.ny.gov to sign it into law & protect our wallets, our air & our future.
This would prevent hundreds of millions in costs from being passed on to NYers.

@governor.ny.gov has a choice to make: sign the bill to end the outdated 100-ft Rule — or leave NYers paying millions for unnecessary gas lines, adding to already skyrocketing utility bills.
No one should have to choose between eating and heating. Sign the 100-ft rule repeal!#cleanerheatlowerbills

Why should struggling families in Buffalo be forced to pay higher rates so gas utilities can keep expanding their monopoly empires? New York’s climate law requires us to slash gas
