Terrific inspirational leadership and can-do, jobs-first posture from our dynamic incoming secretary of energy, @JenGranholm Great question, too @MartinHeinrich!
In today’s Senate confirmation hearing for the incoming Sec. of Energy, we were thrilled to see Gov. @JenGranholm and Sen. @MartinHeinrich discussing how electrification can boost the economy and fight #climatechange. We look forward to working together to #ElectrifyEverything
Listen up Vermontians – Our stats show that households will save up to $3,603 per year in your state when you #ElectrifyEverything. You're already called the Green Mountain State, so why not save some green by going green?
The average household in Georgia spends $4,590 per year on fossil fuels (electricity, space heat, water heat and fuel for cars and trucks). EVs, electric heat and rooftop solar would cut those bills in half. #GoVoteGA#GoDawgs#GoElectric
ATTN Georgians – our stats show that households will save up to $2,749 per year in your state when we #electrifyeverything, boosting the economy when we need it most.
Have you tried to decarbonize and electrify your home? Know someone who has? Please share your story with @rewiringamerica Roughly 25K households in America have fully decarbonized their homes and cars. We need another 125M to do it, and soon.
Have you already started to #ElectrifyEverything?
Share your story with us by emailing hometown@rewiringamerica.org!
Tell us what inspired you to rewire, what worked (or didn't), and what you've done to electrify your lifestyle and home.
Across the country people on both sides of the aisle are wondering if they won or lost. If we rapidly electrify and decarbonize we will all win. 25 Million impossible to outsource jobs, $2K per year in savings for average household and cleaner air for all of us. @rewiringamerica

This is haunting, “So be patient, you can't go to the theatre, museums or the gym. Try to have pity on the myriad of old people you could exterminate.”
1/ I may be repeating myself, but I want to fight this sense of security that I see outside of the epicenters, as if nothing was going to happen "here". The media in Europe are reassuring, politicians are reassuring, while there's little to be reassured of. #COVID19#coronavirus
In the absence of sanguine national leadership, it is incumbent on our state, local, religious and business leaders to act responsibly. This thread, written by a doctor outside Milan, gives helpful perspective and a clear warning.
