"In a behind-scenes, last-minute maneuver, the legislature found a way to hobble IL’s important conversion to renewable energy. @GovPritzker should veto the idea, as has said he will, & find a way to ensure benighted lawmakers don’t override his veto."

🚨LEGISLATIVE UPDATE🚨: The IL State Senate snuck the resolution to expand I-55 into HB2878, & they're bringing it to the Senate floor TONIGHT!

"Expanding I-55 would worsen climate change, increase pollution, & put already overburdened environmental justice communities at risk."

It’s all too rare for elected officials to credit to the activists that do the work that make it possible for lawmakers to lead. Yet, it is always the first thing out of @JBPritzker’s mouth when talking about our groundbreaking new climate law.

“Natural” gas is a greenhouse gas 84x more potent than CO2. IL is #2 in the US for gas storage, which means lots of methane leaks. A first step to move beyond this infrastructure is to transition our power from gas to renewables. #ILOffGas #CEJACantWait https://t.co/L6JwZhJeTp
