The Fund Climate Justice Campaign is Dayenu’s priority campaign for New York State Dayenu Circles in 2025. It calls on state officials to ensure that funds earned through New York’s historic climate law are invested where they’re needed most.
With the federal government now fully captured by corporate polluters, this is the moment for states to step up and take big bold climate action. New York’s Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act enables the state to set a strict limit on planet-warming emissions, charge corporations for their share of pollution, then invest those funds in climate solutions. With this program set to take effect in 2025, now is the time to demand bold and just climate action.
Aleinu, It’s Upon Us.

With the federal government captured by corporate polluters, state-based action has never been more important.
While New York State has long been a climate leader, it’s now in danger of falling short of its ambitious climate goals. The state is not doing nearly enough to ensure that the benefits of a clean energy future – clean air and water, affordable energy bills, and good, green jobs – reach every New Yorker regardless of race, income, or zip code. Together, we can change this.
New York’s “Cap and Invest” Program begins in 2025. If we demand our state officials and lawmakers act, we can limit climate pollution while raising much-needed funds for community-based climate solutions.
To meet the Jewish imperative to survive and thrive l’dor vador (from generation to generation), we must call on our elected officials at all levels of government to follow the path of justice by supporting the investments and policies we need to create a just and livable future for all New Yorkers for generations to come!
