Think clean energy only helps the wealthy? New @UCSB_StratRes research by @leahstokes says otherwise: DSGS participation is highest in lower-income counties. 1 in 4 enrolled homes are in counties where solar adopters earn under $100K. Don't cut it. https://t.co/ljXpPEXAfC

California voters have spoken: 86% want utilities to prove efficient grid use before building more and 83% say reducing bills should be a priority for lawmakers.

Join me and @DeployAction on May 21 at 8 AM PT to unpack the new polling: https://t.co/dgykOaHrvJ

Honored to speak Mon at the @CAvsHate Civil Rights Summit on CA's pioneering role in fighting hate. Yrs ago as Assemblymember, I fought to secure the original funding that made this work possible. Proud to see how far we've come — and ready to keep going. #CAvsHate #CivilRights

[Phil Ting @PhilTing]

New CA polling: 83% of voters want lower power bills. 86% want utilities to prove grid efficiency before new spending. 86% support tying exec pay to affordability. The will is there — now we need the legislation. https://t.co/ugu143lyBX

[Phil Ting @PhilTing]

Californians pay roughly double the national average on electricity — partly because utilities profit from building more, not using what we have. Grid utilization fixes that. @DeployAction is championing it in CA, just like we passed in VA.

For 50+ yrs, the Voting Rights Act stood as the floor — the bare minimum protection for minority voters and communities of color. The Supreme Court just gutted it.
This isn't a step back. It's walking backwards from democracy itself. We can't let it stand https://t.co/gRNqQ654Nb

Join me on May 11th in San Francisco! Thrilled to be presenting at the California Civil Rights Summit. Register at https://t.co/Swoaa0PJOi to attend.

[Phil Ting @PhilTing]

At a time when so many of our neighbors are feeling the impacts of hate and division, this summit offers a space rooted in story sharing, healing, and building solidarity to advance civil rights and confront hate in California.

Amazing night kicking off the Ling-Chi Wang Endowment Fund at @@UCBerkeley Asian American Research Center. Wonderful to see so many classmates and professors and staff who I have known for over 30 years

[Phil Ting @PhilTing]

California isn't losing the rich. It's losing the squeezed. Close the wealth gap — build housing, lower energy costs — or the exodus continues.

Thanks Governor @GavinNewsom for stopping by the Accelerating the Transition conference — and for decades of climate leadership and forging real solutions.

Th @TomSoto for moderating a sharp panel on fast-tracking wind, solar, geothermal, biomass & storage at #AcceleratingTheTransition.
Shout-out to Jeff Johnson, Mayte Sanchez & Alex Vovk for real talk on how projects get built — and what's blocking them. #CleanEnergy @DeployAction

[Phil Ting @PhilTing]

Come by the Accelerating The Transition Conference today at 3pm for our panel on Climate Communications.

Seth Jacobson and I will be representing @DeployAction

Hear from Embold Research on the latest data on climate and Jeff St. John on the hottest stories on climate.

[Phil Ting @PhilTing]

I’m looking forward speaking at Accelerating the Transition on Apr 18-20 in San Francisco.  Kicking-off #SFClimateWeek by bringing together leaders in government, clean tech, investing & policy to discuss real world solutions for a clean energy transition. https://t.co/Bfwf6vVJLt

As a former ED of @AsianLawCaucus, I am so proud to see the organization at the Supreme Court last week defending birthright citizenship. This fight is deeply personal for Asian Americans. 🧵

[Phil Ting @PhilTing]

The Caucus was in that courtroom as co-counsel, alongside the ACLU & NAACP LDF, fighting for every child born in this country. The justices appeared skeptical of the government's arguments. Ruling expected by late June/early July.

@DeployAction The budget deadline is June 15.

This program works. It saves money. It's clean. We need to fund it.

I wrote the bills that created California's DSGS virtual power plant program. It's one of the largest VPPs in the world — and its future is being decided RIGHT NOW in the state budget. 🧵

[Phil Ting @PhilTing]

Proud to be working with @DeployAction on this fight.

They're pushing to accelerate affordable clean energy across the country — and making the case that lower bills and a cleaner grid are the same goal.
