Climate Activists Protest Hochul’s Retreat at State of the State

Several hundred climate activists protested outside of the Governor’s State of the State address in Albany on Tuesday, urging her to invest in renewable energy rather than promoting fossil fuels and nuclear power while turning her back on the state’s climate law. Among the speakers are Renee Vogelsang of Frack Action; Assemblymembers Anna Kelles and Emily Gallagher; Senator Webb; Dr. Sandra Steingraber; Kathy Nolan of Physicians for Social Responsibility; Matt of American Lung Association; Ethan Gormley of Citizen Action; Yvonne Taylor of Seneca Lake Guardians; Eric Weltman of Food and Water Watch; and others.
