To create the just, thriving, clean energy economy we know is possible, we need strong policies that center working families. Now, under this administration, it’s essential we protect hard-won progress and advance solutions wherever possible.
The Analysis
Donald Trump is abusing his power and exploiting the system on behalf of his billionaire Big Oil donors to cut programs that protect the climate, public health, and jobs. They are trying to line their pockets at the expense of everyone else. No matter who is in the White House, we won’t stop working with Congressional allies to bring down energy costs, cut pollution, and invest in communities.
People-centered climate policy works. Climate and clean energy investments cut costs, create jobs, improve lives, and reduce harmful pollution.
Republicans are actively blocking progress, but every fight matters. It’s crucial we hold them accountable and make future progress politically possible.

Tell Congress to Save EVs
Congress is dangerously close to passing a new consumer tax on EVs in the massive transportation funding bill. If that happens, it would raise costs for families and dump up to 230 million metric tons of climate pollution into the atmosphere—that’s equivalent to adding 54 million gas-powered cars to the road for a year. We’re urging lawmakers to reject EV fees and protect clean, affordable transportation for families.
We make good climate policy actionable for policymakers, and support them in getting it done. From policy roadmaps to analysis, grassroots advocacy, strategic communications, and beyond—we’re turning ambitious climate policy into reality.
