Urge Your State Legislators to Vote "NO" on HB 951
North Carolina can’t afford to fall behind when it comes to taking climate action. Yet HB 951, the state energy bill developed behind closed doors by Duke Energy and other industry insiders, would derail our transition to a clean energy economy.
Reach out to your state senator and urge them to vote NO on HB 951.
Rather than opening North Carolina’s markets to competition that will supply our state with more clean, affordable, and reliable energy, HB 951 limits the growth and attractiveness of our state to new clean energy businesses. It prescribes, and locks in specific fuel sources (i.e. gas) for at least the next decade. And while the bill is supposedly a response to the climate crisis, it fails to even mention the words “climate change.” HB 951 is bad for our economy, bad for our environment, and bad for our state.
