Tell the Senate to include equitable access to clean energy in the Build Back Better Act!
GRID
Target: The United States Senate
The benefits of renewable energy – clean air, long-lasting careers, and lower energy bills – must not be limited to the privileged. Yet low-income communities and communities of color are usually left out of conversations about our clean energy future.
The policies proposed in the Build Back Better bill, including investing $2.5 billion specifically for low-income solar, will be transformative for families, the planet, and the economy.
Add your name to tell Congress to vote for climate justice by investing in equitable solar power in the Build Back Better Act! With your help, we can unlock funding that will keep justice at the forefront of clean energy policies.
This legislation has the opportunity to create meaningful, high-paying jobs, replace polluting energy sources, and benefit health and economic security for all families (especially those most impacted by fossil-fuel pollution and the climate crisis).
Investments in renewable energy, specifically for marginalized communities, are crucial in transitioning America into sustainable clean energy use. Our elected officials have a duty to fight for their constituent’s right to a green future through the Build Back Better Act.
Support climate justice – sign now to tell Congress to support major funding to enable equitable access to solar for everyone!

Call on President Biden and Congress to invest in solar power and solar jobs in underserved communities!
GRID
Target: President Biden and Congress
President Biden and Congress have introduced ambitious plans to rebuild our nation’s infrastructure, promote racial and economic justice, and address the climate crisis at the same time. GRID Mid-Atlantic is demonstrating–right here in our nation’s capital–how crucial strong solar policy is to meeting these goals, and how solar power, energy bill savings, and job training make a real difference to families.
We need your help making sure our leaders invest what’s needed to ensure local solar benefits everyone, in our region and nationwide.
We can redirect tens of billions of federal dollars that we currently hand out to support fossil fuels that pollute communities, and instead, invest them in overcoming the barriers that too many households face to accessing the benefits of clean, renewable, local energy. We can bring solar power and solar jobs to millions of people, starting right here in the Mid-Atlantic. In doing so, we can tackle the climate crisis and the crises of racial injustice and inequality.
Add your name to call on President Biden and Congress to invest big in solar access for all!
This is a clear win-win, and the results are not speculative. We can prove it: Since 2014, GRID Mid-Atlantic has been transforming local communities by training and employing job seekers for well-paying career paths in the growing clean energy industry while providing hundreds of no-cost solar installations. Nearly a thousand people have received hands-on experience, and our installations will provide the households we have served so far more than $17 million in lifetime energy bill savings.
Consider how much more solar could do for our entire region with a major boost in federal support!
Sign here to urge President Biden and Congress to include BIG solar investments in the infrastructure package, with an emphasis on installing and job training in environmental and economic justice communities!
