Sign Petition to Support Solar Energy and a Green Economy

From Interfaith Power and Light (http://interfaithpowerandlight.org):

President Trump has ruled against the solar industry by imposing damaging trade penalties. The decision supports the fossil fuel industry at the expense of protecting Creation and American jobs in a growing clean energy economy.

Because President Trump’s decision will increase costs for solar panels, this trade penalty could stop two-thirds of solar installations over the next 4 years.

His decision, supposedly about putting America first, will benefit dirty fossil fuel power over clean energy and it will benefit the two solar cell companies (that aren’t owned by US companies) while hurting consumers and the vast majority of the 260,000 solar jobs in the United States.

Republicans, Democrats and Independents alike all want to accelerate the growth of renewable energy options for Americans. Experts from industry have warned that a high tariff would hamper American competitiveness in renewable energy, one of the largest job-producing industrial sectors of the 21st century.

Tell President Trump that you disagree with his decision to impose penalties on some solar companies at the expense of solar jobs and building a 21st century clean energy economy!
