  • Congratulations on Your Win As Speaker of the House. As You
    Speaker Pelosi and the 116th Congress: Congratulations on your win as Speaker of the House. As you prepare to establish your priorities for the new Congress and Democratic House majority, we would like to thank you for your leadership on the fight to address climate change and ask for your continued support in the first 100 days of the 116th Congress. Businesses, communities, and American families who have been leading the way are looking forward to having a partner in the federal government as we address the shared U.S. and global challenge of climate change. Reports released last year, including the Trump administration's own 4th National Climate Assessment (NCA) and the United Nation's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, show that climate change is already having a drastic impact on our health and our economy. These reports only further underscore the need to take action now. Since President Trump announced his intention to withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement nearly two years ago, we, the undersigned governors, mayors, county executives, tribal leaders, businesses, faith groups, investors, hospitals and healthcare systems, and nonprofit organizations have joined forces to tell the world that we are still committed to meeting America's pledge on climate. In the absence of federal leadership, 3,600 leaders from states, cities, businesses, faith communities, and healthcare, representing more than half of the U.S. economy and population, are working locally to adopt and meet targets for reducing the pollution driving climate change - cutting 500 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per year by 2025 if targets are fully implemented.

  • Progress Report to Highlight the Issues (I.E
    ONE STEP FORWARD, TWO STEPS BACK FOR CLEAN ENERGY? Representatives Dean Arp, John Szoka, and Sam Watford introduced House Bill 589, “Competitive Energy Solutions for North Carolina” during the 2017 session. This bill took small steps towards increasing the role solar plays in the state’s energy mix by creating a competitive bidding process and by expanding rooftop solar. Senator Harry Brown added a moratorium on wind energy projects, claiming NC’s military operations would be under threat by wind turbines. Senator Brown used the once bipartisan supported clean energy bill as an attempt to pit solar against wind. Governor Cooper refused to allow Brown to claim victory: after signing H589 into law, Cooper immediately issued an executive order to the Dept. of Environmental Quality asking for the expedition of wind project permits. No 18-month ban will stop this clean energy source from moving forward. WATER, AIR, AND HEALTH Legislators continued to put the water, air, and health of North Carolinians at risk throughout the 2017 legislative long session. State lawmakers approved a bill that would allow companies to spray “garbage juice” into our air; passed a policy that limits the amount of financial compensation a resident or property owner can receive for detrimental health and livelihood impacts in hog pollution or other nuisance cases; and thumbed their noses at local control over environmental safeguards by prohibiting state regulators from making stricter water quality rules than the federal standards (assuming those even exist). Overall, leaders of the General Assembly showed a lack of empathy for their constituents and clear preference for polluters with deep pockets in 2017.

    NORTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY STATE LEGISLATIVE BUILDING 16 W. Jones Street Raleigh, North Carolina 27601-1030 March 5, 2020 Jamille Robbins NC Department of Transportation– Environmental Analysis Unit 1598 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1598 Submitted via email: [email protected] Re: Modernization of outdoor advertising rules 19A NCAC 02E .0225 To the NC Department of Transportation, We are North Carolina legislators who care about the scenic beauty of our state and We are writing to oppose the proposed changes to the modernization of outdoor advertising rules (19A NCAC 02E .0225) that would limit local ordinances and allow billboards with a state permit to be converted to digital and raised to 50 feet in height, even if such changes are not allowed by the applicable city or county ordinance. Instead, we support the considered “Alternative 2” described in the agency’s March 1, 2019, fiscal note. Alternative 2 would recognize local government ordinances and limit the changes that could be made to an existing billboard as part of modernization. Alternative 2 as described in the fiscal note: “The second alternate is to further limit activities that industry could do as part of modernization. An example includes restricting companies to modernize from static to digital faces. Some local governments have more stringent rules associated with outdoor advertising regulations including moratoriums on allowing digital billboards. NCDOT considered excluding digital faces as part of modernization. NCDOT chose not to make this exclusion since the state already allows digital billboards and that industry should be allowed to accommodate for technology enhancements.” We wish to protect the ability of local communities to control billboards, especially taller, digitized billboards that impact the scenic beauty of North Carolina and can be a distraction to drivers.

    NORTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STATE LEGISLATIVE BUILDING RALEIGH 27601-1096 May 20, 2021 The Honorable Governor Roy Cooper North Carolina Office of the Governor 20301 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-0301 Re: Support for Adoption of Rules to Reduce Carbon Pollution from the Energy Sector and to Join Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative Dear Governor Cooper, We commend you for your leadership in confronting the threats that climate change poses to our State. By bringing North Carolina into the U.S. Climate Alliance and issuing Executive Order No. 80 (EO80), your administration has established science-based carbon pollution reduction and clean energy goals which are critical to ensuring that we in North Carolina do our part to help avert the worst impacts of climate change. We endorse the goals of the North Carolina Clean Energy Plan (CEP) to achieve a 70% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions from 2005 levels by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. Recommendation A-1 of the CEP resulted in a stakeholder process that identified options to achieve these carbon reduction goals. Of the options examined, joining the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) was identified as one of the most cost-effective pathways for North Carolina to swiftly and meaningfully reduce power sector carbon pollution. We write to urge your administration to continue the common-sense approach to reducing greenhouse gas pollution that you launched with Executive Order 80 by establishing enforceable limits on power sector carbon pollution and joining the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI). Achieving the Clean Energy Plan’s 2030 target requires swift action.
