Governor Hochul: Fund the Transition From Fossil Fuels!

Governor Hochul has two powerful financial climate policies before her that require decisive leadership to advance: The Climate Super Fundand NY’s Cap and Invest program. The first will recoup costs from historic polluters to pay for the damage that comes from their climate changing emissions- the latter will set a cap on future greenhouse gas emissions and generate revenue to help keep the transition affordable for all New Yorkers. Both will work in complementary fashion - one will address past climate harms and the other will ratchet down future emissions. Both will help finance climate solutions.
