NYC’s new Blue Highways program will shift freight from trucks to waterways, easing congestion, improving public health, and helping manage the projected 46% freight increase by 2055. It also cuts toxic air pollution in overburdened communities. https://t.co/YO9ij1OqnR

A NH study found that areas downstream of PFAS-contaminated sites saw far higher rates of birth defects among pregnant women. Another clear reason for @GovKathyHochul to keep at least $500M for the Clean Water Infrastructure Act to remediate PFAS. https://t.co/Fd6MJ9S2TD

Advocates are in Albany today urging @GovKathyHochul to sign the repeal of the 100-Foot Rule. Ending it would be a win for #cleanenergy, cut reliance on natural gas, and save New Yorkers $200M by ending subsidies for outdated gas infrastructure.

Today in Albany, advocates are calling for the All-Electric Buildings Act and for @GovKathyHochul to repeal the 100-foot rule. The Act will cut emissions by requiring zero-emission heating in new buildings, while repealing the rule will reduce gas usage. https://t.co/sjAAqYHJqO

We must get toxins like forever chemicals out of menstrual products. The bill to achieve this is now on @KathyHochul's desk. Read this op-ed for more:

Gov. Hochul, don't pass up this chance to protect public health by banning 'forever chemicals' in tampons, pads and period underwear.

A bill banning the usage of PFAS in menstrual products currently sits on @GovKathyHochul's desk. We strongly urge the Governor to sign this bill – the bill would make safe menstrual products more accessible, creating a healthier New York. https://t.co/bsK5cLYsRN

.@Govkathyhochul called the 100-ft rule repeal to her desk! A huge opp to save NYers $200M/yr & stop digging our fossil fuel hole w/ outdated gas infrastructure subsidies. We urge the gov to sign the bill & say so long to this costly relic. More frm @LizKrueger/@JoAnneSimonBK52👇

The @EPA has proposed a rule that would contaminate our drinking water & waterways. Submit a #PublicComment - tell the #EPA to withdraw the rule that rewards polluters and threatens millions of acres of wetlands and waterways. Submit before Jan 5: https://t.co/YQhJxU1CPT

New York’s biggest polluters are being held accountable. With the EPA stepping back, NY State’s stepping in - a new rule says natural gas plants, metal refineries & landfills must report emissions data. A big step for climate action & justice. https://t.co/UqQow3mXTc

Utility bills are out of control. Repealing the 100ft rule will save New Yorkers nearly $600M/yr. Big Oil is spreading disinformation & spending big to protect their subsidy & their profits. My OpEd w/@LizKrueger urging @GovKathyHochul to sign our bill
