YES TO WIND
Local Jobs. Healthier Communities. Energy We Can Count On.
Offshore wind is a powerful opportunity for East Coast communities. It’s creating good jobs, revitalizing our ports, generating reliable power, and stabilizing electricity bills right here at home.
Just as importantly, it’s improving public health by cutting pollution and helping families breathe easier, especially in communities that have long lived near dirty power plants.
Across the region and up and down the east coast, everyday people are saying: YES TO WIND.
