Post 1: We need your help in stopping legislation (S877/A2850) which will cause all New Jerseyans to pay more ($300 million per year) on their energy bills for a dirty nuclear bailout and create a roadblock for New Jersey to achieve its renewable energy goals. We must invest in 21st century green energy technology! Click here to take action to stop the nuke bailout bill! http://bit.ly/no-nuke-bailout-nj #NoNukeBailoutNJ
Post 2: The Nuclear Bailout Bill (S877/A2850) will cost New Jerseyans $300 million per year on their energy bills, while blocking Governor Murphy's goal to achieve a 21st century renewable energy economy. Spending millions of dollars to bail out old, unprofitable 20th century energy sources makes no sense. It’s the equivalent of spending big bucks to keep the horse-and-buggy industry alive while Henry Ford is moving cars off the assembly lines. Take Action! Urge Assembly Speaker Coughlin and your local Assemblypersons to do all they can to stop this dirty legislation. http://bit.ly/no-nuke-bailout-nj #NoNukeBailoutNJ
Post 3: People across New Jersey support Governor Murphy's plan to prioritize investing in renewable energy technology. This will bring economic, health and environmental benefits, while at the same time keeping the cost as low as possible for ratepayers. In contrast, NJ's legislative leadership is creating a roadblock to achieving this goal. Take Action! Contact the Governor, Assembly Speaker, and your local Assemblypersons today. Urge them to stop the nuke bailout bill and take a stand against the back room deal making between polluters and legislative leaders. http://bit.ly/no-nuke-bailout-nj
