Clean Energy Industry Legislative Reception

Following Up: Stay Engaged and Keep in Touch!

Thanks to all who turned out to make our first Clean Energy Legislative Reception a success! We were delighted to see 200-plus representatives of industry, non-profits, and government make the trip to Annapolis and show your support for our industry.

Thanks also to our speakers and legislative champions, whose support for clean energy policies and programs is building a strong future for the industry.

Take Action

Your senators and delegates need to hear from you. They need to know that clean energy is a force in Maryland for jobs, innovation, energy cost savings, and environmental benefits. Call your representatives, let them know what your company brings to Maryland, and let them know you were here.
