Lansing, Mich.—Union leaders representing over a million Michigan workers stood together on Tuesday to launch the Michigan Climate Jobs Coalition (MICJ), a new alliance dedicated to ensuring that the state’s transition to a clean energy economy is built by and for the working class. The coalition, announced at a press conference in Lansing, unveiled a detailed 17-point policy blueprint developed with Cornell University’s Climate Jobs Institute. The plan is a direct challenge to corporate-driven climate agendas, insisting that the jobs of the future must be union jobs, and that tackling the climate crisis must address soaring energy costs, inequality, and community health.
