Proud of @OECActionFund team for mobilizing around this and opposing quickly, with less than 48 hrs notice. We're going to ensure everyone knows this was a vote to raise Ohioans' utility bills to pay for gas lines to private corporations' offices.

Big update -- the House passed this around 6 pm. This proposal, literally introduced yesterday, now goes to Gov. Mike DeWine to sign or veto. Mere hours ago, you couldn't even get bill text on the GA's website....

A fun and energizing day with @chrisronayne and Cuyahoga County mayors talking about the climate challenge and opportunities in the IRA! Thank you @GrowthOpps for hosting us & leading on green bank financing and Ohio’s energy transition! #LocalsLeadtheWay
Chris Ronayne@chrisronayne
Great to be with more than a dozen Cuyahoga County Mayors today who have signed on to Power A Clean Future Ohio. Forward together for a #HealthyCuyahoga

Been a busy three years! Ohio local leaders are stepping up and taking on the climate and energy challenges facing our state. So much more ahead!

Cleveland Heights is committed to environmental and economic sustainability, thank you @PoweraCleanOH for supporting our work.
Power A Clean Future Ohio@PoweraCleanOH
"If we're looking at being economically resilient in a community like ours, we need to take these steps now so that we're not penny wise and pound foolish in the future." Watch how Mayor @kahlilseren and @ClvHtsGov are partnering with PCFO to lead on climate! #LocalsLeadTheWay

@cityofsandusky @TomHorsman @ericwobser @SecretaryPete @RepMarcyKaptur Couldn’t agree more! @ericwobser is one of the absolute best at what he does.

Our City Manager @ericwobser & @SecretaryPete.
At the press conference, @RepMarcyKaptur stated “If only we could have ten Eric Wobsers across my district, we could be bringing tens of billions of dollars back to our community.”

Welcome to downtown Sandusky, @SecretaryPete! We’re also happy to have @RepMarcyKaptur & @robportman here to celebrate the awarding of the @USDOT RAISE Grant for the Route 6 Connectivity Project & Sandusky Bay Pathway.

Transitioning our bus and train fleets nationwide to electric infrastructure would result in 4,200 fewer deaths PER YEAR. Let's pass #EJJA now and invest in our children's health. #JobsAndJustice filesforprogress.org/memos/electrif…
Energy Jobs & Justice Act@EJJAOhio
As students across Ohio head back to school, many will be riding in buses that spew toxic pollution throughout their neighborhoods. Our young people deserve better. Let’s pass #EJJA and kickstart our transition to electric school buses! #JobsAndJustice

So many have pushed so hard for so long to get here. Feeling like a grab an oar moment here. Time to get to work! #ActOnClimate #localsleadtheway
Power A Clean Future Ohio@PoweraCleanOH
Moments ago, the #InflationReductionAct officially became law! Here’s what it means for Ohio, and why we believe this is another great reason for your community to join PCFO (if you haven’t already!). 🧵 #LocalsLeadTheWay

Pretty awesome to see our report on the costs of climate change to local governments featured in the Senate Banking Committee. Even better to see my friend @joeflarida give amazing testimony and speak truth to power.

Thank you @SenSherrodBrown & members of @SenateBanking for the opportunity to share Ohio’s voice on the costs we face with #climatechange. We cannot afford to ignore the climate challenge any longer. We must act now.

It's been a couple of weeks since we released our new report with @OhioEnviro, "#TheBillsComingDue". We're excited to share our findings with @SenateBanking in Washington, D.C. tomorrow! But first, here is some great news coverage we'd like to share with you. 🧵 #LocalsLeadTheWay
English
Looking forward to this incredible opportunity to speak with @SenSherrodBrown and @SenateBanking members on #TheBillsComingDue report this Thursday. This is our chance to #ActOnClimate!
Power A Clean Future Ohio@PoweraCleanOH
PCFO is going to Washington! This Thursday at 10am, our very own @joeflarida will testify in front of a Senate Committee about our new report, “Borrowed Time: The Economic Costs of Climate Change.” Learn more and watch the livestream! banking.senate.gov/hearings/borro… #LocalsLeadTheWay

@AftabPureval @PoweraCleanOH Thank you, Mayor! We really enjoyed talking with you about Cincinnati’s leadership on climate action.
English
Thank you @PoweraCleanOH for speaking to me this morning about Cincinnati’s clean energy initiatives and climate goals! Full interview coming soon.
English
Finally the headline we were hoping for when we named the report!
If the public health, environmental, agricultural, migration impacts or any of the other climate impacts we are *currently* experiencing don’t wake people, maybe the dollars and cents will?

Ohio’s cash-strapped cities and towns are going to need to find billions more a year to keep pace as challenges from climate change intensify over the coming decades, according to a new analysis.
