The momentum to pass a meaningful energy efficiency bill in Virginia has reached a fever pitch. The House of Delegates is considering Delegate Ken Plum's energy efficiency bill (HB 2176) and it's up to us to make sure it passes!
The House Commerce and Labor Committee will be voting on HB 2176 today. Please contact them ASAP, especially if your delegate serves on this committee.
Tell your Delegate that:
• Delegate Plum's efficiency bill, HB 2176, will mandate that Virginia meet 19% of its energy demand by 2025 with efficiency.
• The bill will lower electricity rates for consumers, stimulate the economy, and create good, high-quality jobs right here in Virginia.
If all of us take action by calling today, we can chalk up a major victory for the environment in Virginia -- and brighten the prospects for a clean energy future in Virginia.
