Governor Hochul wants to make nuclear the "backbone" of energy in New York. New Yorkers don't want it. Too dirty, too old, too slow. A false solution for ratepayers and the climate. If you're in New York and you want Gov. Hochul to know you don't want new nuclear in New York, click the link and sign the petition! https://actionnetwork.org/letters/individual-petition-against-nuclear?source=direct_link&eType=EmailBlastContent&eId=acdd63b5-129f-4575-bc1b-59bdfab6995e

Learn what Hochul is up to when it comes to NYS energy policy.
On May 20 at 7 pm, we're hosting a free webinar. All are welcome, including advocates, organizers, neighbors, and anyone who cares about New York’s energy future.
Governor Hochul has been building nuclear energy into the foundation of New York’s energy plans while more affordable renewable options keep getting sidelined. Nuclear is too costly, too toxic, and too slow, and Indigenous communities are already paying the price.
Communities across the state are fighting back, and this webinar is where we get organized!
