Today CEP along with 60+ other climate, building decarbonization, energy, & affordable housing groups have issued a joint statement calling for swift passage of the Inflation Reduction Act set to reduce carbon emissions by roughly 40% by 2030 and provide much needed relief on energy costs for families. The passage of the IRA would secure healthier homes, address inflation, lower energy costs for households & begin to build a more just, equitable world.

“We are proud to join the 60+ organizations listed to advocate for the passage of the IRA and bring relief to our communities. CEP uses a systems-based approach to tackle climate challenges impacting the health and economies of communities across Kansas, and the passage of this package–while not fully perfect–does bring us further in the direction of a just energy transition and more equitable future for all.” – Dorothy Barnett, CEP Executive Director
