Legislation has been introduced in Texas that would thwart renewable energy and promote fossil fuel development in a state where the impacts could not be more consequential. In recent years, the plummeting costs of wind and solar have allowed renewables to compete with fossil fuels in a state that is the largest emitter of greenhouse gases in the country – and Texas now generates more renewable energy than any other state by a long shot. The Texas Advanced Energy Business Alliance and Texas Consumer Association are leading efforts to block the ideological attacks on renewable energy and move forward bills that will help consumers and increase grid reliability.
  • Texas Advanced Energy Business Alliance (TAEBA) is the Texas chapter of Advanced Energy United is deeply involved in efforts to stop bad anti-renewable bills while also promoting transmission expansion and energy waste reduction.
  • Texas Consumer Association and the Consumer Fund of Texas are consistently providing focused research and advocacy showing how anti-renewable bills would hurt Texas consumers. Two new studies are in the works to come out in the next few weeks; TCA will use support here to make sure people see the research and understand the negative impacts.

Permit Power is working to make clean energy more affordable and accessible by addressing bureaucratic barriers that make rooftop solar 7-8 times more expensive in the U.S. compared to other developed countries. These obstacles include lengthy, complex local permitting processes and utility interconnection delays. Building on successful legislation in California and Maryland, which established pathways for instant online permits for rooftop solar and home battery installations, Permit Power is advocating for related legislation in seven states in 2025. This presentation will explore how changing policy design and strategic messaging can offer a pathway to success in the very different States of New Jersey and Texas.

All data points show that hard-to-find & reach Black, Latino, Native, AAPI, women, and young voters will need additional engagement to turn out for values-aligned candidates. One way to motivate turnout is through layered canvas mail: a personalized mail touch will increase voter turnout, influence voter behavior, and decrease canvas decay. Through a partnership with WorkMoney we will be adding QR codes and pathways to connect voters to government resources that put money directly in their pockets. We know these voters feel economic anxiety and believe no one cares about their pain. The care and IRA benefits framework is an antidote to apathy so that voters can make a direct connection between their power at the voting booth and governing process. This is our opportunity to shift the political calculus -- and ensure voters aren’t isolated from the safety net.
