Clean Energy

Don't let one senator snatch defeat from the jaws of victory


We’re on the verge of a hard-fought victory for clean air and clean energy, but Sen. Lisa Murkowski seems determined to stand in the way.  Last May, President Obama decided to improve the nation’s gas mileage standards and require big cuts in tailpipe emissions of global warming pollution.  Now, with the EPA moving to finalize this new rule by April 1, Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski wants to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.  

The Senate could vote within days on her Dirty Air Act, which would, among other things, block the EPA’s new clean car standards.  Sign our petition to the right telling our senators to Vote No on the Murkowski Dirty Air Act!

State progress on clean energy

We helped enact energy-efficiency standards for a variety of products in 11 states. We've worked with 25 states to pass a renewable energy standards. And we've helped 12 states cut global warming pollution with clean cars programs. When enacted, these programs will reduce gasoline consumption by as much as 7.2 billion gallons per year in 2020 and save consumers up to $16.7 billion annually at the pump in 2020. Read more.

Sign the petition:


Congress must defeat all attempts to block or freeze enforcement of Clean Air Act limits on global warming pollution.

Your senators need to hear from you on clean energy and global warming


This week we’re teaming up with dozens of organizations to make sure the U.S. Senate hears from Americans from all walks of life who want to repower our nation with clean energy and help stop global warming.  

Sen. John Kerry is currently crafting new clean energy and global warming legislation that could do just that. But with the oil and coal industries lobbying harder than ever to block our progress, it’s up to us to make sure our senators make clean energy their top priority.

For 72 hours, from March 2 through March 4, we’ll flood Capitol Hill with calls from clean energy supporters like you from all across the country. Join us by calling your senators now.  

Call the toll-free number 1-877-9-REPOWER. You will be asked to enter your zip code, and from there you will be patched through to your senators’ offices to urge them to support comprehensive clean energy and global warming legislation.

Once you call please take a moment to report your call in the form to the right.

Thanks for your help at this critical time.
