PennFuture is working hard in Harrisburg to advance sustainable, 21st-century legislation that protects Pennsylvanians’ constitutional right to a clean and healthy environment.

But we cannot do it with you! Take action on the various legislation moving below!

DATA CENTERS

Tell the PA Senate: Vote Yes on a 6-Month Data Center Moratorium

House Bill (HB) 2496 passed the PA House! It gives municipalities 6 months to pause data center development so they can strengthen their local zoning ordinances to better protect them from data center development.

Now it's the PA Senate's turn. Tell your PA Senator to act now and pass HB 2496!

TAKE ACTION

Tell the PA Senate: Pass HB 1834, The Data Center Act!

The Data Center Act, House Bill (HB) 1834, is one of our first real opportunities to protect Pennsylvania communities from unchecked data center development.

The bill requires large data centers to bring new, in-state clean energy and long-duration storage to meet their power needs while establishing stronger standards for cleaner backup power.

Tell your state Senator to pass HB 1834 today!

ENERGY AFFORDABILITY

Tell the PA Senate: Pass HB 1260, the Solar-Ready Warehouse Bill!

House Bill 1260 “The Solar-Ready Warehouse Bill” would make sure that warehouse roofs can support solar panels instead of sitting empty, providing an opportunity to use tens of millions of square feet to power homes and lower electric bills.

PennFuture wrote this commonsense legislation and it was passed by the state House of Representatives. We need your help to get the bill passed in the state Senate.

Take action now to urge your state Senator to support HB 1260!

TAKE ACTION

Tell the PA Senate: Prioritize Energy Affordability, Grid Reliability, and Public Health

Monthly bills are skyrocketing across Pennsylvania, yet utilities keep asking for more from ordinary Pennsylvanians struggling to make ends meet.

House Bill (HB) 2184 defines “public interest” in Public Utility Commission proceedings and establishes a guide to inform how the PUC decides when our bills increase and by how much.

Take action today and urge your state Senator to cosponsor HB 2184.

CLEAN WATER

Tell the PA Senate: Pass HB 2302, the State Licensing of Water Well Drillers

Nearly a quarter of Pennsylvanians rely on private wells for drinking water, and right now, there are no standards and no licensing requirement for the people who drill them.

Tell the PA Senate that licensing well water drillers protects families, safeguards clean water, and is LONG overdue for Pennsylvania.

TAKE ACTION

Sign Our Petition to Protect Lake Erie!

Lake Erie not only provides drinking water to more than 11 million people, but suppports a booming outdoor recreation economy that fuels 177,000 jobs each year.

Currently, sewage, pollution, invasive species, and toxic algae blooms are contaminating our water and are putting wildlife and access to clean drinking water at risk.
