Hi Friend,

With Trump’s brutal budget bill officially signed into law, I won’t sugarcoat how much is at stake for our clean energy future.

At a time of skyrocketing energy demand, this cruel bill cuts off opportunities to add new, cheap energy by repealing critical investments that have helped bring massive amounts of wind and solar onto the grid.

Translation: Monthly utility bills are going to spike for working families—a “Republican Rate Hike” that no one asked for.

This is why it’s more important than ever for states to step into the breach and lead the way on clean energy. Unfortunately, as the GOP destroys federal clean energy investments, there’s a real risk some states will backslide on clean energy and allow more gas buildout instead.

Evergreen is ramping up our work in states like Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—to help get more affordable clean energy online and provide decision-makers with solutions that benefit their constituents.

But there’s an important fundraising deadline coming up, and we need your help to ensure we can deploy this work at the scale that’s needed.

We have a goal to raise $15,000 by the end of July, which is coming up fast. Will you chip in $10, $25, or any amount to help put us over the top? ([link removed])

While federal investments in clean energy get decimated, state leaders need our help. They’re facing significant challenges with rising energy costs, wrongly blamed on clean energy and environmental policies. To secure energy affordability and prevent the build out of more expensive gas, decision-makers will need both communications support AND clean energy policy solutions—and this is what Evergreen does best.

Together with your support, we’ll:

Provide targeted state lawmakers, governors, and members of Congress with cutting-edge messaging guidance to help garner public support for energy solutions that are cheaper, faster, more reliable, and domestic.

Launch strategic accountability campaigns that will make sure elected officials in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland continue to push PJM Interconnection—the company that controls the electric grid for their region—to approve more clean energy and stave off price spikes.

Defend and advocate for strong state clean energy laws and siting reforms, like Michigan’s existing clean energy law, Pennsylvania’s proposed Lightning Plan, and a clean energy standard for Wisconsin.

We are ready to push forward, go on offense, and help states continue to lead on climate in the face of federal inaction. But fossil fuel companies, generators, grid operators, utilities, and their Republican allies will be fighting to take us backward—and those forces are only growing stronger.

With your support, we’ll be ready to fight these forces as we go all in on supporting state climate action this year and beyond. Will you make a contribution before our July 31 deadline? Any amount helps. ([link removed])
