SUPPORT HB2657: Coal-Free Hawai‘i

One of our top priorities - banning the use of coal in Hawai‘i starting 2023 - has a hearing on Thursday, January 30 at 8:30 AM in the House Energy and Environmental Protection Committee (agenda here). As you may know, the last coal plant in Hawai‘i, located in Kapolei on O‘ahu, has a contract with the Hawaiian Electric Company that terminates in 2022. We want to pass House Bill 2657 to ensure that this contract is not renewed, and that coal, the dirtiest source of fossil fuels, is eliminated in Hawai‘i once and for all. Please submit testimony today in SUPPORT of HB2657- Relating to a Coal Free Hawai‘i at capitol.hawaii.gov. You can quickly submit “support” or add in talking points using the fact sheet below. Testimony in support matters for this bill, so please submit your support for HB2657 today.
