We advocate for public policies

that fight climate change across our region and beyond.

NATIONAL

Big Oil is doubling down on liquefied natural gas (LNG), a dangerous and dirty fossil fuel. Exporting it raises energy prices, harms frontline communities, and supercharges the climate crisis. We're fighting back.

DC

The Public Service Commission regulates the District’s utilities – Pepco and Washington Gas – and has the power to make or break our climate commitments. Check CCAN’s Docket Dispatch to see if PSC is keeping up with the task.

MARYLAND

Marylanders are already paying the price for climate disasters — floods, heat waves, and storm damage are costing families, schools, and local governments millions of dollars. We're trying to pass a historic first step towards making polluters pay.

VIRGINIA

Dominion is proposing a massive new methane gas plant in Chesterfield, misleadingly calling it the largest “peaker plant” in Virginia. It's expensive, highly polluting, and deeply unnecessary. We're fighting to stop it.
