Oppose Nuclear & Coal Bailouts and Renewable Energy and Efficiency Rollbacks at the Ohio Statehouse
Sample Script
Hi, my name is _______________________ and I’m calling because I’m concerned about House Bill 6. This bill creates a new energy tax on all Ohio electric customers to bail out uneconomic coal and nuclear plants - including a plant not even in Ohio!, I am also concerned with how HB 6 guts our renewable energy and energy efficiency standards. These standards reduce energy waste, save us money and are helping Ohio to transition to clean, affordable renewable energy.
I want [Senator/Representative] _______________ to take a stand for future generations of Ohioans and oppose this bill and instead support legislation that will help to grow renewable energy like wind and solar that will truly make our air cleaner.
Please ask _____________________ to vote NO on HB 6.
