In 2021, Illinois grantee partners contributed crucial policy insight, strategy, and political muscle to secure the passage of the Climate and Equitable Jobs Act (CEJA). The bill is a triumph for equitable climate legislation, doubling down on the promise of equitable economic and workforce development, retirement of coal-fired power plants, and expansion of programs to ensure solar power access and affordability. Our partners made sure that the equity provisions of the legislation remained intact and are now looking ahead to implementation.
