Jan 5, 2026As historic levels of federal clean energy funding roll out across the country, state leaders are meeting the moment with clean energy policies of their own. See the highlights of the year so far and the next goals ahead, from clean energy investments to clean fuel standards to protections for frontline communities and more.
A look at the Capitol Hill origins of Earth Day (and LCV) in 1970, and the abundance of federal climate action wins we’re celebrating today. From climate justice, to clean energy and transportation, to prioritizing healthy communities and conservation over polluters, the Biden-Harris administration is leading the way on climate progress.
In the first half of 2023, leaders across the country delivered on the “big green wave in the states”. Following last November’s election, state legislatures took advantage of President Biden’s affordable clean energy plan to enact ambitious, even landmark state clean energy laws. States have passed new legislation and rules that will grow clean energy manufacturing jobs and reduce energy costs for consumers.
