Kathy Hochul could bring down bills and protect our future by building 15 gigawatts of public renewables.
Instead, she's raising bills to build Trump's fracked gas pipeline and a crypto mine.
Is this why?

How dare you imply that being married to someone at the firm representing the Williams Pipeline would affect @governor.ny.gov’s judgment?
She is totally capable of being a strong female corporate sell-out all by herself.

When @governor.ny.gov tells you she wants affordable clean energy, don’t believe it. She’s doing Trump’s work for him, selling you out to the gas companies raising your bills.

The climate crisis is here and it’s not going away.
NYC wasn’t built to withstand climate chaos. It’s up to us to build a sustainable, resilient city where tragedies like this never happen again.

A 39-year-old man died after he became trapped in a flooded basement in Brooklyn, as sudden heavy, record-setting rains brought flash flooding to the New York area, the police said.

Much of the rainfall came in an intense 20-minute period in the afternoon, officials said. A record two inches fell at LaGuardia Airport.

Our fossil-fueled grid is heading for blackouts as soon as NEXT YEAR. This is why we can’t wait to build a full 15 gigawatts of public renewable energy. ⚡️
We can’t trust private companies to invest in the public good. We need public power.

Charlie Kirk wasn't from New York. He didn't live in New York. The shooting didn't happen in New York.
In July he Tweeted "Was just in NYC all weekend with our family. Never felt safe. So many people in the city who don’t belong."
Why did the New York Yankees have a moment of silence for him?

Governor Hochul @governor.ny.gov has an opportunity to reverse course and become a climate champion. Doing so would enshrine her in the pantheon of New York's greatest elected officials (and guarantee her another term).
It's your choice, Governor!

On a bad air day like today, it is especially dangerous when trucks, buses, and cars illegally idle. Shut the engine off, and go inside.
