RMI Will
Support state-level policymakers, advocates, and researchers with targeted analytics, inclusive community building, and a shared vision with specific targets.
Continue building a sustained subnational climate movement that accelerates action, promotes accountability, and works in partnership with the federal government.
Work with the US Congress and federal agencies to develop and follow through on ambitious and beneficial electrification policies.
