Building Potential would like to make all of our members aware of an opportunity to support ENERGY STAR and the work of the EPA. Please take a moment to read the statement from The Alliance to Save Energy, US Green Building Council and sign on to their letter at the link provided, your support could make all the difference!
Dear ENERGY STAR Supporter:
In anticipation of potentially debilitating proposed cuts to the ENERGY STAR program at EPA, we urge you to sign this letter urging EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin and key committee leaders in Congress to fully fund ENERGY STAR in the upcoming fiscal year.
The deadline to sign the letter is COB Monday, April 7.
The intent of the letter is to demonstrate strong, nationwide business support for ENERGY STAR. As such,it is designed to be signed by companies, nonprofits, local governments, trade associations, and other organizations. We are not accepting signatures from individuals. Read the letter here and please click here to sign on behalf of your company.
When the Trump administration proposed eliminating ENERGY STAR in 2017, nearly 1,100 companies and organizations signed a similar letter of support. That letter played a key role in demonstrating widespread, bipartisan support for ENERGY STAR and helped to protect the program’s funding.
We hope to replicate that impact this year. Please join us by signing the letter today!
For questions, contact Sapna Gheewala Dowla (sgdowla@ase.org) at the Alliance to Save Energy or Ben Evans (bevans@usgbc.org) at the U.S. Green Building Council.
Best,
The Alliance to Save Energy
U.S. Green Building Council
