“It’s very kind of the Governor to give this charity to Big Oil but perhaps there are actual New Yorkers who need it more.” - @billmckibben.bsky.social ckibben

Proud to join @cmrestler.bsky.social, @agounardes.bsky.social, @joannesimonbk52.bsky.social , and @repdangoldman.bsky.social in demanding a ban on nonessential flights from heliports in New York City! What our neighborhoods experienced during the Ryder Cup was completely unacceptable.

Statement from Eight Task Force Members of the Brooklyn Marine Terminal Task Force Vote Against the EDC Proposal.

Shana Tova U'metuka! Wishing all who celebrate a happy, healthy, and sweet new year filled with love, growth, and sweet beginnings.

@governor.ny.gov, people are clamoring for affordability. It’s time to drive a stake into the heart of this monster of a pipeline.

NY's utility regulator supports controversial natural gas pipeline rejected in the past New York State Public Service Commission accepted National Grid's long-term gas plan, which includes a controversial natural gas pipeline.

The PSC’s approval of the NESE pipeline is a betrayal to NYers. They have sided with the fossil fuel industry at the expense of our wallets, health & future. This decision locks us into expensive, polluting pipelines, with the costs passed onto ratepayers.

50+ legislators joined @lizkrueger.bsky.social & me in urging @governor.ny.gov to sign our energy affordability bill. Ending NY's 100-foot rule will save customers $200M annually on their utility bills & protect our climate.

24 yrs ago, nearly 3,000 innocent lives were lost. We remember them, along with our first responders & survivors.

The sky that day really was the bluest of blues. I'll always remember that blue sky, the ashes that fell & the resilience & compassion we saw as we came together to grieve & heal.

NY Gov Hochul and PSC: Stop National Grid’s NESE Pipeline This letter will be delivered directly to Governor Hochul's Executive Chambers and the Public Service Commission (utility regulators and watchdogs) Office in Albany, NY. *You must be a New York State ...

Nat Grid has requested another rate hike to pass the cost of the new pipe along to customers. Why would the state raise NYers utility bills to enrich utility shareholders? Unbelievable.

Gov. Hochul must stop Trump’s polluting fracked gas pipelines.

The proposed Williams NESE pipeline threatens NY waters & would keep us tied to dirty fossil fuels. To make matters worse, the ratepayer would pay for the pipe through a higher monthly utility bill!
