Thurs evening, WI @GovEvers set a goal for 100% carbon-free by '50.

This morning, MN @GovTimWalz announced a bill for 100% carbon-free by '50.

The Midwest is feeling climate change. And we're taking action.

[Governor Gretchen Whitmer @GovWhitmer]

With these new federal grants, we’re ready to launch the Renewables Ready Communities Program to meet our renewable energy and MI Healthy Climate Plan goals. Let’s keep leading the future of clean energy manufacturing and keep moving toward our goal of 100% clean energy by 2040.

Michiganders deserve a clean environment and affordable, reliable energy. Yesterday, I voted for the Clean Energy & Jobs Act that sets bold, achievable goals for a clean energy standard for our future.

#ERCOT defines "extreme" levels of gas, coal, & nuclear plant outages as 11 gigawatts. There is currently that much capacity offline. Meanwhile, renewables are performing above expectations and providing 30-40% of the power needed today. #txlege #txenergy #energytwitter 1/

Nearly 10K residents of Grosse Ile Township lost power Sunday and again last night. While driving home from Lansing I received messages from family, friends and community members demanding answers. I asked DTE’s CEO for those answers.

[Governor Tim Walz @GovTimWalz]

I ran for Governor with a promise to take bold, decisive action to combat climate change – and this year, I signed over 40 climate initiatives into law.

We’re reducing greenhouse gasses and preparing Minnesota communities for the impacts of climate change for decades to come.

[Governor Gretchen Whitmer @GovWhitmer]

Michigan’s auto industry is going electric. ⚡

We're projected to dominate battery production by 2030, lead the future of mobility and electrification, and become a leader in chipmaking.

This is a generational opportunity for our state. Let's keep our foot on the accelerator.

[Craig Mauger @CraigDMauger]

Michigan Democratic lawmakers participating in a press conference this morning calling for action on legislation to create “a 100% carbon-free electricity standard” by 2035.

A committee hearing will take place in June, Sen. Sam Singh says.

[Kara Cook @cookkar_]

This is what electrification leadership looks like!

@WorldResources: Michigan’s EV opportunity estimated at 56K jobs, $40B in drivers’ savings, significant community health improvements, and so much more. https://t.co/6RNI023U0Z

Artist Amanda Williams’ artwork, “Redefining Redlining,” is the result of 100,000 tulip bulbs planted in vacant lots that have now bloomed a vibrant red.

It lets us imagine the families/homes/generational wealth that could have been, but for discriminatory housing practices.
