All New Yorkers deserve safe, clean, and comfortable homes. But outdated laws have rigged the system, forcing us to continue burning expensive, toxic fracked gas.

Low-income New Yorkers are being slammed by volatile gas prices and high energy bills, paying three times more of their income on energy bills than non-low-income households. New Yorkers are spending $200 million a year to subsidize expanding the gas system while the fossil fuel industry rakes in record profits.

The NY Home Energy Affordable Transition (HEAT) Act un-rigs the system, freeing our state to invest in clean, healthy, zero-emissions buildings and thermal energy networks. NY HEAT would cap energy bills at 6% of household income for low- and middle-income families, saving them up to $75 per month for necessities like rent, groceries, and medicine. 

Tell Governor Hochul to move beyond the old laws holding New York in the dirty fossil-fueled past and into the clean, healthy, and affordable future we deserve. Tell her to include the NY HEAT Act in her 2024 Executive Budget!
