Watching @MichelleObama's #Becoming tonight like hundreds of thousands of others. I want to honor a first lady who made us better than we were. What an inspiration!

.@MassSave helps families cut bills & reduce fossil fuel dependence. Lawmakers took $12K in industry cash while advancing a bill that weakens energy efficiency programs. That’s not affordability—it’s putting profits over people. #mapoli

Laura Knott from @BrooklineMOF spoke eloquently in favor of the Tactical Transition bill and Municipal Empowerment bill to the TUE Committee. 30 members of @MOF_Mass attended today's hearing, many allies gave testimony, and @senatorbarrett asked insightful questions.

.@MOF_Mass is in the house, the State House that is. We're here to support two bills that will accelerate the transition from gas to electric heat pumps: the Tactical Transition bill (S2249/H3539) and Municipal Empowerment bill (H3564). #mapoli #cleanaffordableheatnow
Prices for gas are low now, but customers are seeing record high utility bills. That’s because gas utilities are passing along the costs of expensive methane gas pipeline replacements on to consumers.

Why are gas bills so high? Gas utilities are recklessly spending to increase their profits. Hats off to our DPU, nationally recognized here for their actions last spring to rein in costs made possible by the 2024 climate act #mapoli

Utilities are lobbying for higher rates and to keep polluting on ratepayers’ dime. @senatorbarrett and @repmarkcusack it’s time to put #PeopleOverEnergyProfit. #mapoli #ClimateJusticeNow #AffordableGasNow #CAHN!

We packed the room for a crucial hearing on @MassGovernor‘s Energy Bill. Thx to our members who showed up & called on our legislature to take the lead on climate! It's a good foundation, but we'll continue to fight for bolder policies.

Utility lobbying, advertising and perks contribute to higher bills for MA ratepayers. @senatorbarrett and @repmarkcusack please favorably report S.2239 and put a stop to using ratepayer funds for lobbying. #PeopleOverEnergyProfit #ClimateJusticeNow #AffordableGasNow

Submit written testimony in favor of S.2239. Check out this action toolkit that has key talking points and info on how to submit your testimony: docs.google.com/document/d/1…

TOMORROW (6/4) there is a critical hearing on legislation that would put People Over Energy Profits in Massachusetts. S.2239 would limit the use of our dollars for utilities’ advertising, lobbying and lavish expenses. Here's how you can help #PeopleOverEnergyProfit (thread)
I just wrote a letter: We must have a robust climate bill this year!. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/we…

How can the MA House and @MauraHealey administration fail to come together to pass bold climate legislation during the hottest period on Earth for at least 120,000 years? Failure of leadership barely describes what is fundamentally a failure to protect our kids and grandkids.

Only 8 days left! Legislators haven’t passed a climate bill with key environmental & climate justice priorities. Join us at the statehouse this week & next to keep the pressure on! 🌍💪 #ClimateJusticeNow #ActOnClimate #mapoli
