ACTION PLAYBOOK

Contact Your State Energy Office

Your state energy office shapes the implementation of climate policies, making them key players in your state’s efforts to decarbonize.

While you aren’t technically a constituent of the (unelected) people working in your state energy office, you can still help influence the direction of their policymaking. It’s these folks, not your state legislators, who are responsible for submitting applications for federal grants, so it’s important that we reach out to them directly.

  • Estimated time: 30-45 minutes. Easy!

    This playbook can be completed in one sitting, but you can start and come back anytime. Our community also takes action together during drop-in Zoom meetups called Hours of Action. Join one here!
