Southeast Mayors Call On Congress To Set National Clean Energy Goal

In this mention

Mayors from 24 cities across the Southeast, coordinated by the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, are calling on Congress to adopt a national clean energy standard requiring 80% clean electricity by 2030 and 100% by 2035. The mayors argue that while cities have been working on climate action for decades, federal leadership is needed to accelerate the transition to renewable energy and electric vehicles. The effort aims to create jobs, improve public health, and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
