We are New York's only statewide environmental organization fighting for clean air, clean water, renewable energy & open space through political action.
In January, NYLCV and @greenwatchdogNY announced a slate of “Superbills” — priority legislation that will be more heavily weighted in our annual environmental scorecards.
Take action here to get these bills passed: https://t.co/IENxhU57bo
The Trump administration struck a sham deal with TotalEnergies, a foreign energy company, to end a New York offshore wind project and invest millions in oil and gas.
We're suing with @GovKathyHochul to stop this illegal deal that harms our planet and destroys union jobs.
Proud to have the endorsement of @nylcv. Their partnership in introducing legislation to prevent PFAS contamination in our drinking water and continued dedication to electing pro-environment leaders is essential to protecting New York, and I am honored to have their support.
It's go time for @CHPExpress!
This 1250 MW line running down the Hudson will deliver enough clean energy to power all of NYC's government operations as well as 20% of its electric load.
Incredible project, great execution, win-win across the board! 👏👏👏
🌱 BREAKING NEWS! 🌱
The QueensWay is moving forward!

We thank @NYCMayor for championing a project that brings us closer to a greener, fairer, more connected New York!
✅ BILL PASSED! ✅
The SUNNY Act will help countless homes and businesses blunt the rising cost of energy while reducing our reliance on polluting fossil fuels.
Thank you for your leadership, Senator @LizKrueger and Assemblymember @EmilyAssembly!
Yesterday in Albany, NYLCV’s Clean Buildings Campaign Manager Jonathan Furlong joined @LegSteveStern and Sen. @KevinParkernyc as they held a press conference calling for the passage of S. 1335-B / A.5404-B – which will expand the authorizing language for the C-PACE loan program!
Advocates joined together along with Rep. @DeborahJGlick + Caraway to highlight PFAS in cookware. 2 NYLCV Superbills that would address this public health threat: The Beauty Justice Act + the Ban on PFAS in Consumer Products are ready for action now.

🚨 ENDORSEMENT ALERT 🚨
I could not be prouder to earn the endorsement of @nylcv, which leads the charge to protect New Yorkers from climate emergency and advocate for a sustainable and resilient future.
1/4
At a time when New York should be doing everything it can to reduce our dependence on expensive and dirty fossil fuels, the FY27 State Budget takes us a step backwards.
Read our full statement:
Happy to join advocates and Jordan Nathan of Caraway home to call for passage of the prohibition on PFAS in consumer products To protect people our water & soil from these dangerous forever chemicals
The Lead Pipe Replacement Act had cleared the Assembly Health Committee! Huge NYLCV shout out to Committee Chair and bill sponsor Assemblymember @AmyPaulin -- once again delivering for our health & our environment! 🙏
Great news! @GovKathyHochul recently announced $113 million in funding to make local water infrastructure projects affordable across New York State. $62 Million went towards Improvements at Albany County’s North and South wastewater treatment plants.

@NYSenatorRivera's Lead Pipe Replacement Act just moved out of committee, to NY Senate floor!
Lead pipes poison our drinking water, damaging our health & our environment. The Act would require the replacement of all NY’s lead service lines by Nov 2037.
Climate change is real. Science is real. Southern Brooklyn deserves an Assemblymember who understands this. I'm proud to be endorsed by @nylcv and look forward to going to Albany to fight for a cleaner and better future for all.
Last week, @NYSERDA announced over $6 million towards seven projects that will integrate Electric Vehicles into New York's Electric Grid. These projects represent a win for less emissions and cleaner energy around New York State.
