🧵 New York was supposed to have its cap-and-invest program to cut pollution and make polluters pay this year — but Governor Hochul is delaying the process. In response to the release of the first program regulation, NY Renews issued this statement.

🌍 Another week of action for climate resiliency and affordability across NY! 🌎

THANK YOU to everyone who participated!  Our message to @GovKathyHochul @SenatorASC @CarlHeastie : #ReleaseTheRegs on Cap-and-Invest and #FundClimate in the budget for climate justice in NY!

[Reimagine LIPA @Reimagine_LIPA]

“Ultimately, we want to see the end of the public-private partnership and the start of a fully public LIPA as laid out in the LIPA Public Power Act. But if there is a better deal for Long Island & Rockaway ratepayers from another service provider, as well as consequences…

[NYSJAN @NY_SJAN]

We’re here with @LIProgress @nychange & our other member orgs to protect LI as part of the NY Renews March week of action! We’re calling on @GovKathyHochul to “release the regs” for New York’s polluters pay program (called Cap & Invest) & Fund Climate in the 2025 State Budget!

[Greenpeace USA @greenpeaceusa]

BIG NEWS: A jury has reached a verdict that Greenpeace entities are liable for over $660 million in damages in our trial against Big Oil company Energy Transfer.

This is far from over. We’re going to appeal. And we’re prepared to fight this all the way to victory.

[NY Renews @NYRenews]

80+ orgs, businesses, faith groups & unions in NY just wrote to @GovKathyHochul to ask she release draft Cap-&-Invest regulations ASAP. Why? 👀Dep. Director @greenwatchdogNY & Dep. Director @NYCEJAlliance take to @CapitalTonight to talk all that's at stake https://t.co/y3O7TYwYDF

☎️ IT'S TIME TO CALL FOR OUR FUTURE ☎️

The demand to build 15 gigawatts of public renewables has been joined by unions, health orgs, legislators, and thousands of New Yorkers. But still Gov. Hochul and NYPA CEO Justin Driscoll are silent.

It's time they hear us, loud and clear.

[Reimagine LIPA @Reimagine_LIPA]

A start. If LIPA can recognize here that PSEG isn’t fit to carry on the power supply contract, then perhaps it can see where else PSEG isn’t fit, like maybe all of the rest. 🤔

🚨BREAKING: In a shameful move, @GovKathyHochul VETOES the critical TREES Act.

#ClimateSuperfund Act, the #CO2Fracking Ban, and other critical decisions are still on the table.

@GovKathyHochul: stop letting your legacy be climate delay as our home floods before our eyes.

In 2025, NY will finally have a dedicated revenue stream for climate.

Can you join us in Albany on Jan 22nd for a statewide #FundClimate mobilization, to demand action on the interconnected climate, affordability, and housing crises?
