The labor movement was born in the coal mines of IL & Appalachia. Hardworking rural people lost their lives in the mines to keep the lights on in US cities.

We must stop mining & burning coal. We must empower and support coal communities to forge a new path. #JustTransition

Today, @AmerenIllinois customers from across the state are urging the @ILCommerceComm to say NO to another rate hike! Instead of wasting millions of dollars on unnecessary fossil fuel infrastructure, we need to invest in more efficient, affordable #CleanHeat.

"This rate hike will extend the life of dirty, expensive gas infrastructure that's hurting our health & our planet," @SierraClubIL volunteer Jane Cogie testified today. The @ILCommerceComm must deny Ameren's $148 million rate hike & prioritize #CleanHeat.

.@AmerenIllinois wants a $148 million rate hike. Why should we pay even more money for expensive, outdated fossil fuels like so-called 'natural' gas? That's why Ameren customers are urging the @ILCommerceComm to #StopTheRateHike.
