In New York, both upstate and downstate, we know firsthand the repercussions of inequality and climate change and we have the solutions. NY state legislators have paid lip service to investing in our communities and fighting climate change. Now is the time to demand action.

That's why an unprecedented coalition of New Yorkers created the NYRenews platform - to hold politicians accountable for investing in our communities, our environment, and our economy.

NYRenews is demanding what New Yorkers need most: good paying jobs, healthier communities, and environmental justice, all through 100% clean and renewable energy for all of New York State by 2050.
