Tell Congress:
Protect Our Jobs
Clean energy investments have created more than 400,000 jobs over the last couple of years—revitalizing U.S. manufacturing, strengthening local economies and bringing down our energy costs. But some in Congress want to end our energy boom.
Take Action to Protect Our Jobs!
At a time when costs are too high and families are struggling to make ends meet, American-made clean energy is creating good-paying jobs and preventing electricity bills from spiraling out of control. Everywhere from factory floors to family farms, electricians, construction workers, technicians and engineers are hard at work building the next generation of energy. Energy that’s cheaper, faster and more reliable.
Efforts in Washington to repeal clean energy investments to provide tax cuts for billionaires would send these jobs to China, undermine our energy independence and send energy bills through the roof.
Protect Our Jobs is a campaign to defend the livelihoods of clean energy workers and local economies across the country. We call on Congress to protect clean energy jobs in our communities, powering American families for generations to come.

Our Leadership
We are a campaign of clean energy workers, business leaders, and other advocates dedicated to protecting clean energy jobs. We are calling on Congress to protect clean energy investments in our communities, because we know that repealing them would pull the rug out from under growing American businesses and countless workers - and raise energy and utility costs for Americans already struggling with rising prices across the board.
