This budget season was tough. We restored some Healthy Homes funding, but our fight isn't over. Join @BeyondGasDC & Councilmember @charlesallen Oct 18, 10:30 AM to evaluate what worked, what didn't & chart our path forward for stronger investments.

We are PUMPED for neighborhood geothermal! đź’š
As @MyBGE and @washingtongas share their WARMTH Act pilot projects with the @MarylandPSC today, @AIMforPower/@mdjustpower & IPL-DMV congregations are standing with our neighbors at Northwest Park Apartments. We are PUMPED for neighborhood geothermal in Maryland!

Sometimes, being faithful requires us to slow down. But this moment calls us to move quickly, so we can shift our DC, MD, and NoVA homes and congregations to clean energy before federal incentives sunset over the coming year. Let’s make sacred haste: https://t.co/OyiyEB733k

Last Friday, 42 powerful leaders testified with WIN & Beyond Gas demanding Council restore funding to the Sustainable Energy Trust Fund (funding that fuels Healthy Homes Act implementation) Watch some of WIN's testimonies here

Thank you @CMWendellFelder for meeting with us & committing to push your colleagues on restoring SETF funding that will help residents lower utility bills & breathe cleaner air. You held to that in Council this morning and we hope you will help restore this funding in the budget.
Met with environmental advocates today for their Green Budget Day of Action. From protecting the Anacostia River in Ward 7 to lowering energy bills + investing in public transit, it's time for a DC budget that puts people and the planet first. 🌿

What is ENERGY STAR and why does it matter? https://t.co/ln1kaIfTKv

U.S. taxpayers have spent millions of dollars to create and run ENERGY STAR. What have we gotten in return?

.@washingtongas wants to impose a 12% rate hike all to boost its profits and pour more $$ into replacing outdated methane gas pipes. Yet the message from D.C. residents to @DC_PSC is clear: we’re fed up with high bills for fossil fuels. https://t.co/DrO2sgFpe5

It’s impossible to see what makes this cooperatively owned 1962 building unique among most other apartment properties in New York City: Its residents opted to fully electrify the heating and cooling system. Here's how:

The 1962 building hit its emissions reduction targets well ahead of Local Law 97's first reporting deadline on May 1. Here’s how.

Just months after getting hit with a 5% rate hike on their electric bills, DC residents could see their gas bills rise as much as 12%. All because @DC_PSC is letting for-profit utilities raise costs without any checks. Read more from @markrodeffer:

DC residents don’t just face high housing costs: utility companies, too, keep raising costs to consumers, with little to show for in terms of helping DC meet its climate commitments. Residents can...

Baltimoreans are measuring hazardous levels of nitrogen dioxide in our gas-burning kitchens, including just last night. @SenBillFerg @StateSenMaryW @dalyaattar41 @corymccray: There is no good reason to build a gas-burning building or gas-burning power plant in Md ever again!

Maryland Public Service Commission rules Washington Gas Light misled customers about natural gas! 🌿 Big win for consumers and the environment! Kudos to @SierraClubMD and @Earthjustice for fighting misinformation. 👏 https://t.co/ys9UjRcF8w

Tonight, Sen @BrianJFeldman's committee meets to consider whether Md needs *more* gas-burning 🔥 power plants, with *less* recourse for communities when these polluters come into our neighborhoods. 🤯 All day, our District 15 congregations are calling to say: NO! (📸@davidchoy)

No polluting facility should be imposed on already overburdened communities in Md. But to live out our commitment to environmental justice, we have to pass the CHERISH Act to give the state real authority to protect our neighbors. Speak out: https://t.co/DdncdDGJKN

Incredibly – there are Maryland state senators who are seriously proposing, in 2025, to build new gas-burning power plants here. We call on our leaders to say NO to any more gas-burning in Maryland, NO to HB 1035 / SB 937. Speak out: https://t.co/DdncdDGJKN

For a 4th year in a row, Md leaders are slow to move the Better Buildings Act, which would simply stop building new gas-heated buildings in Md. Burning gas indoors is expensive, unhealthy, & dangerous. We know better – why can’t we do better? Speak out: https://t.co/DdncdDGJKN

You know what I *don’t* need our state elected leaders to do? To 🔥 light 🔥 anything 🔥else 🔥on 🔥fire. There is no good reason to build a gas-burning power plant or a gas-burning building in anyone's neighborhood in Maryland ever again.
