Our mission is to ensure that the transition to a clean energy economy creates high-quality, unionized jobs that provide fair wages, comprehensive benefits, and safe working conditions. We are committed to protecting the environment while fostering economic growth and stability for workers and communities.

By partnering with labor unions, employers, policymakers, and local organizations, we aim to champion sustainable energy solutions that support workers’ rights, promote social equity, and advance environmental stewardship

As a non-partisan coalition, we advance public policies and seek to hold public officials accountable on the issues that matter to our movement:

Transform Pennsylvania’s Energy Economy
Create Union Jobs that Support the Sustainable Energy Industry
Make Buildings Safer and More Energy Efficient
Ensure Workers and Communities Thrive
Support Transportation, Agriculture, and Infrastructure Initiatives as part of the Clean Energy Transition

The public supports investments in energy reforms. Nearly two-thirds of surveyed Pennsylvanians support building a clean energy economy, with even higher support (73%) among union households, according to The Nature Conservancy-PA’s poll. Union households also believe (78 percent) that clean energy is a good investment; over three-in-five say it is a very good investment.

The public also supports climate action. The Yale Program on Climate Change Communication found that seventy percent of surveyed Pennsylvanians believe that climate change is happening, and 63 percent of survey respondents report being worried about the climate crisis. Two-in-three Pennsylvanians think climate change is an important issue, according to a 2023 poll conducted by HIIT Strategies for Climate Power.

Union households in Pennsylvania are particularly concerned about climate change. A 2023 poll by The Nature Conservancy-PA found that among union households, 86 percent say addressing climate change is a priority. Most surveyed Pennsylvanians (65%) supported increasing clean energy production and improvements to air quality, public health and energy reliability were seen as most likely to benefit from investments in clean energy, according to The Nature Conservancy-PA.
