Join in with special guests Bill McKibben, Mark Ruffalo and others for this virtual launch of Deadline Hochul: the mass mobilization of thousands to march in Albany just before Earth Day on Saturday, April 18, 2026.

Trump is on a trajectory toward authoritarian rule while rapidly bringing us to the brink of climate disaster.

Utility bills are unaffordable. Good clean energy jobs are disappearing. Air pollution kills thousands of New Yorkers each year and elders and children are forced to stay inside.

Trump is not a king. And Hochul is not a queen.

Yet, like Trump, Hochul ignores our laws by approving the Williams NESE pipeline, delaying the end to oil and gas in new buildings, permitting fracked gas power plants like Greenidge bitcoin, stopping the cap & invest program, cutting clean energy programs like NY-Sun and Empower Plus, pushing AI and data centers, and disregarding the state’s climate pollution reduction law.

+ Instead of approving the Williams NESE and Constitution fracked gas pipelines, Hochul should lower our energy bills through the rapid buildout of solar and wind energy and making our homes more energy efficient.

+ Instead of destroying the programs that help install solar on our homes and failing to buildout more public power and utility-scale solar, wind and battery projects, Hochul should create good jobs building public renewables, transmission projects and residential solar.

+ Instead of halting the state’s cap and invest program just before it was set to start, Hochul should deliver billions of dollars of state investments yearly in our future.

+ Hochul must set specific, enforceable anti-pollution requirements to break free from the shackles of expensive, polluting oil and gas.

+ Hochul must deliver the billions of dollars of state investment yearly needed to make clean energy affordable for all - creating tens of thousands of good jobs in the process. Hochul should tax the rich!

Hochul tells us to be “realistic,” as she does Trump and the oil & gas lobby’s bidding. Together, thousands of us will send our own message to Hochul that cannot be ignored.

It’s Deadline Hochul.
