Got hands-on with welding during my visit to @steamfitters638 Training Center!
It gave me a whole new appreciation for the skill and training that goes into this work. Great to see how union apprenticeships are preparing New Yorkers for good-paying careers in clean energy.

Thank you @ClimateJobsNY and @NYCBldgTrades for organizing such an informative tour of the union training facilities!
I had a blast trying my hand at welding during a tour of @steamfitters638’s training center! It was great to see firsthand how union apprenticeship programs give New Yorkers the hands-on skills and experience to build successful careers. Skilled trades are an essential part of our workforce, and it was a pleasure to learn more about the work being done to train the next generation.

New York to build state’s first two utility-scale thermal networks @CanaryMediaInc @ClimateJobsNY canarymedia.com/articles/geo…
The offshore wind industry promised thousands of union jobs, kickstarting a training boom that prepared NYers for careers in clean energy.
Now, with the federal gov's stop-work orders and contract buyouts, union workers are being left behind.

Offshore wind projects promised high-paying careers to NY union workers — until the federal government spent $1.4B of taxpayer dollars to shut them down.
Now, @GovKathyHochul and @NewYorkStateAG Letitia James are fighting to get them back.

NY's nuclear energy buildout can uplift communities across the state with good, union jobs — but only if labor’s included in the conversation.
During Nuclear NY’s 2026 symposium, @esthervictoria emphasized the need for collaboration between energy, policy, and union workers.
Thank you @GovKathyHochul for expanding the Sustainable Future Fund’s investments in clean energy.
Along with making buildings more energy efficient and lowering electricity bills, these projects will create good, union jobs that empower families across New York.
In a new op-ed, @esthervictoria and @julietighe17 call on NY to get clean energy projects moving and plan for the future. We thank Gov. Hochul for taking steps on both. Now let’s get union workers building.

From offshore wind to nuclear power, building New York’s clean energy future requires two things: a shared vision, and the skilled union workers ready to create it.
With Climate Week over, it’s time to get to work.
This summer’s heat wave showed the value of local clean energy. NYC is putting solar on public buildings, expanding battery storage and advancing thermal energy networks.
Comptroller @MarkLevineNYC explains how the city can build on this progress: bit.ly/3V6UOQ9
