Stand up for your energy rights

It may be a new year, but we’re still in the same fight for energy freedom. Senate Bill 1024 and House Bill 741 would decimate Florida’s thriving solar industry, risking thousands of good jobs and billions in economic development — and the bills are moving fast

In order to clear the Senate, SB 1024 must first pass the Senate Committee on Regulated Industries, and we’re expecting them to vote soon. It’s critical that committee members hear from as many Floridians as possible this week. Will you send an email now and urge them to oppose SB 1024?

93% of Florida residents support solar net metering, but we need to make sure we’re louder than a vocal minority that wants to gut your solar rights. Your message could be what convinces the committee to support local jobs, economic growth, clean energy, and grid resilience. Email now and ask them to vote no on SB 1024.
