The New York State legislature just passed a critical piece of the NY HEAT Act, A8888, that ends the 100-foot rule — a significant win for New Yorkers and our climate future!
Ending the 100-foot rule means no more $200 million yearly ratepayer subsidies for fossil fuel expansion and forcing New Yorkers to pay for gas hookups we don’t want or need. It means a cleaner, fairer energy system that paves the way for heat pumps, solar, and real affordability.
Governor Hochul must sign this bill into law immediately to lock in these protections. Send her a message: No delays. No excuses. Sign the NYHEAT deal now!
