We are calling on Governor Hochul and our elected officials to ensure that we implement the climate law in a swift, just and equitable way by funding programs that move us toward a clean energy future. 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. We need to act now to demand the strongest possible programs to invest in clean energy, public health, good jobs, and affordability for New Yorkers.
To meet the Jewish imperative to survive and thrive l’dor vador (from generation to generation), we call on our elected officials at all levels of government to support the investments and policies necessary to create a just and livable future for all New Yorkers!
Governor Kathy Hochul approved a new fracked gas pipeline, delayed the state’s end to oil and gas in new buildings, and supported a state energy plan with new fossil fuel investments, decisions that are at odds with New York’s leading climate law. We’ll join thousands of people marching in Albany to ask Governor Hochul to be the climate leader NY state needs, bringing a Jewish contingent to this important action.

While New York State has long been a climate leader, it’s now in danger of falling short of its ambitious climate goals. Tell Governor Hochul to do her job and follow the law – by saying no more dirty energy and implementing the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA).
“Ma’alin ba-kodesh v’ayn moridin”: once we set out upon a holy path – toward a renewable energy future – we rise, we do not descend. Tell your legislators work with the Governor to protect the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA), and support other important climate legislation.
More than 1,100 NY Jews from all denominations across the state signed onto a letter urging the Governor to invest in renewable energy solutions while resisting pressure from the White House and the fossil fuel industry to invest in dirty, expensive, and dangerous fossil fuels.

On November 7, Governor Kathy Hochul decided to approve the NESE Williams Pipeline project. This is a shanda, a potential disaster for New York State, and a blatant giveaway to the polluting fossil fuel industry.
