Description
BIG NEWS! Rep. Salud Carbajal (D-CA-24) just reintroduced the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act (H.R.5744) in the U.S. House of Representatives this week! Join CCL Staff for an all-volunteer webinar to get the details around the legislation this session and how you can take action and build support for the policy in your community and in Congress.
The Energy Innovation Act is a carbon fee and dividend bill — and it’s pretty much our favorite climate policy ever. Polluters shouldn’t use the air as a trash can. A policy like this charges polluters a fee for the carbon pollution they put into our air. The money collected goes to Americans in the form of a monthly “carbon cashback” payment to keep things affordable.
