                        He did this for two wealthy donors who have oil and 
gas interests.

Him.

                        This time, In a total villain move, Donald Trump has 
frozen all offshore wind projects. And he did it at two donors' request.

                        This reckless and corrupt decision threatens the 
nation's climate goals, puts thousands of clean energy jobs at risk, and 
forces states to rely on polluting fossil fuels to meet their energy needs.

                        The consequences of Trump's decision are dire. 
Climate change continues to worsen every year, and humans are feeling the 
intensifying effects through wildfires, hurricanes, drought, heat waves, and 
more.

                        We absolutely must prioritize switching to 
sustainable energy sources as fast as possible. But instead, Trump wants us 
to move backwards, further into the arms of the oil and gas industries, 
further committing us to their dirty and polluting consequences.

                        States like New York and New Jersey had set 
ambitious plans to transition to renewable energy, relying on offshore wind 
to meet their targets. New York alone planned to generate 9,000 megawatts of 
offshore wind power by 2035 — enough to power millions of homes with clean 
energy. Fully implementing offshore wind projects along the East Coast would 
cut carbon emissions by 50 million tons annually. This is the equivalent of 
shutting down 131 gas-fired power plants.

                        But two of Trump's wealthy donors, both with 
interests in fossil fuels, didn't want offshore wind farms near their 
properties.

                        Congress must act immediately to override this 
reckless decision and pass legislation requiring offshore wind expansion. 
Sign this petition to demand that Congress take action to protect offshore 
wind energy and secure a cleaner, more sustainable future!
