"description": "Hochul: Sign the 100-Ft Rule Repeal Raise your voice for energy affordability and climate action! Join us in Albany for a powerful demonstration outside Governor Hochul's office. We’re calling on the Governor to sign A.8888/S.8417, the 100-Foot Rule Repeal, which the legislature passed in June 2025. For decades, gas utilities have been using the 100-Foot Rule to add $200M every year to our gas bills to pay for extra gas infrastructure and increase their already obscene profits! $2 billion dollars every 10 years adds up fast! With the rising cost of living and worsening extreme weather events, New Yorkers can't afford to waste any more money on leak-prone, unsafe, and outdated methane gas infrastructure that's harmful to human health and our environment. Repealing the 100-Foot Rule will curb skyrocketing utility bills, reduce demand for more gas pipelines, and make it easier for utilities to transition to more efficient clean heating and cooling systems that are better for our health, our wallets, and our planet. While other states are rolling back climate progress, New York must take a BIG STEP toward strategically and safely downsizing the methane gas system. Join us in supporting A.8888/S.8417, the first pillar of the NY HEAT Act!",
