I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.
The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

The Senate supports the GAP Fund, too, which would help fund building upgrades to support electrification, energy efficiency, and resiliency improvements, especially for people who can’t afford to upgrade on their own.

The Senate wants to see the NY HEAT Act enacted to reduce energy costs and encourage electrification. The HEAT Act has support not just among climate advocates, but across a broad political spectrum in the Legislature.

Clean water funding is a priority for both houses: the Assembly and Senate proposed $600M and $700M, respectively – and they agree that $100M of the total should go toward replacing dangerous lead pipes in our water system. That would be a public health win for people across the state.

The Senate and Assembly are out with their responses to @GovKathyHochul’s executive budget, and there’s a lot for climate advocates and environmentalists to like. We’re going through the 370 pages (!) of documents to review all the details.

Scientist Ayana Elizabeth Johnson reminds us not to expect climate leadership from the Trump White House. She’s thinking “about what cities can do, what states can do. That’s where a lot of implementation of climate solutions happens.”
