FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Nov. 3, 2023

Clean Jobs for Pennsylvania, a coalition of Pennsylvanians who stand for the creation, growth, and preservation of clean-energy jobs in the Commonwealth, today issued the following statement in light of this week's court ruling on Pennsylvania's entry into the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, or RGGI:

The members of Clean Jobs for Pennsylvania are tremendously disappointed by this week's court ruling. As a result, Pennsylvania will remain behind the curve in addressing air pollution and spurring the jobs and economic benefits associated with the Commonwealth's transition to cleaner energy.

RGGI is our best opportunity to protect the environment and create jobs while limiting costs to consumers.
