Climate Jobs Massachusetts

Labor unions and partners building a 21st-century energy economy with family-sustaining jobs.

Yesterday, MA activated its long term contract for Vineyard Wind 1, locking in stable, affordable electricity prices for the next two decades. This project is now powering over 400,000 homes & businesses and is projected to save MA customers $1.4 billion over 20 years 🎉

Meet Eric, a union painter with @IUPAT_DC35. His offshore wind job helped support his family while he worked to build infrastructure delivering reliable, clean energy to Massachusetts. Hear more of his story👇

Meet Erin, an IBEW Local 223 electrician who worked on the Vineyard Wind 1 project. Erin helped build this project in order to deliver price-stable, clean energy to the New England grid. Hear more about her story👇

📣Vineyard Wind construction is complete!🎉
This project is expected to save Mass ratepayers $1.4B over the first 20 years of operation. Reliable, home-grown energy PLUS cleaner air for our families. This is a win-win!👏https://t.co/2OwqIEyLC8

[Climate Jobs Massachusetts @ClimateJobsMA]

Hundreds of American union workers are making renewable wind energy a reality. The Vineyard Wind 1 project, which recently completed construction, created more than 1,500 union jobs and will deliver enough energy to power over 400,000 homes & businesses.

[Massachusetts AFL-CIO @massaflcio]

Greywater recycling is a tool to fight climate change and build resilient infrastructure – our unions have the skills and workers to get projects done.

We are committed to finding the right solutions for workers, communities and our environment.

[Massachusetts AFL-CIO @massaflcio]

Keeping this pause in place will create uncertainty for hundreds of construction workers who rely on this project to support their families, and be devastating to the energy needs of the Commonwealth @Mass_BTU

“Once again, the Trump administration is halting offshore wind projects that were already approved and underway, pulling the rug out from under workers for the second time this year,” said Brendan Griffith, President, NYCCLC, AFL-CIO.

[Massachusetts Building Trades Unions @Mass_BTU]

@realDonaldTrump order shutting down 5 Offshore Wind projects including @VineyardWindUS currently nearing completion & producing electricity is a layoff notice & JobsKiller for #union trades workers 3 days before Christmas https://t.co/uCSanYipvq

[Climate Jobs Massachusetts @ClimateJobsMA]

Vineyard Wind 1 employs hundreds of union construction workers in New Bedford and off the coast of Massachusetts. Our neighbors, friends, and family members will be out of a job this holiday season because of the decision to pause the lease for a project that is almost complete.

Our statement on this week’s court ruling lifting the federal government’s freeze on offshore wind permitting. Thank you @MassAGO!

“How can you say no to an industry that creates thousands of jobs for local communities?”

We’re saying yes — to offshore wind, good union jobs, and a cleaner, more affordable future for working families. #YesToWind

[Climate Jobs NY @ClimateJobsNY]

Before joining @local79nyc, Eli worked unsafe non-union jobs. Now he has training, benefits, and stability to build a better future. As climate change brings extreme weather, he’s proud his union is creating good jobs and protecting our communities.

[Climate Jobs Massachusetts @ClimateJobsMA]

We celebrate #EnergyIndependenceMonth because union workers like Erin from IBEW Local 223 are key to an energy-independent future. #union

[Climate Jobs Massachusetts @ClimateJobsMA]

It’s up to us to build clean energy projects that lower costs and put workers first.

#EnergyIndependenceMonth

[Climate Jobs NY @ClimateJobsNY]

Happy Independence Day!

This Independence Day, we’re celebrating the union workers who build, maintain, operate, and advocate for the clean energy infrastructure powering our energy-independent future. #EnergyIndependenceMonth

Thank you, @MassGovernor, for your leadership. DOER will continue its work to advance our energy transition. Locally produced clean energy will help meet our growing electricity demand, create family-sustaining job opportunities, and reduce air pollution.

President @chrissylynch29 of the @massaflcio is spot on - thoughtful climate policy considers workers, communities, and the environment together.

We were proud to celebrate the signing of this bill at @IBEW103 with @MassGovernor, legislative leaders, and environmental partners!

[Governor Maura Healey @MassGovernor]

“Our state is capable of the triple wins that help communities, help workers, and help our shared environment.

This legislation checks all those boxes."

I joined @MassAFLCIO's Chrissy Lynch at @IBEW103 to celebrate our bold new climate law and the clean energy jobs it'll bring to Massachusetts.

[Governor Maura Healey @MassGovernor]

We brought together labor and lawmakers, industry and advocates to end the years-long delays tying up clean energy infrastructure – and they got it done.

With this bill, we’re cutting through the red tape and clearing the way for good jobs, cleaner air and lower energy costs for Massachusetts.
