CLEAN ENERGY JOBS DAY

Call on Congress to Pass Strong Clean Energy Jobs Bill to Jump-Start Job Creation in Hudson County

The clean energy jobs bill, called the American Clean Energy and Security Act, is expected to come to a vote in the House of Representatives this summer. If passed, the bill will allow successful businesses in Hudson County to grow and we will be able to put people back to work, reduce electricity and heating costs for local households, and keep America competitive in the global economy.
In order to drive home this point, on:

Thursday, May 28, at 10:00am
Room 104 in the Babbio Center at Stevens Institute of Technology
1 Castle Point on Hudson, Hobok
en

Small-business leaders and residents of Hudson County will host a meeting with local clean energy companies to talk about their businesses and how investments in a clean economy will have quick economic benefits and create local jobs

A new energy economy means we'll ramp up manufacturing for solar and wind equipment, get people back to work making homes and buildings more energy efficient, and expand businesses to install clean energy technology at our homes, schools, post offices, and other public buildings. Businesses like, 3rd Rock Systems & Technologies, which installs solar panels on large commercial areas (including Stevens Institute) then sells power to companies cheaper than PSE&G, are already based here and are looking to expand their business and workforce.

Please join us and show your support for new jobs and a cleaner world
