Dear Fellow UUs:
In a very exciting step, the UU Legislative Ministry of Florida (UULMF) approved a working partnership with
the Alliance For Climate Protection (ACP) and the Repower America program to support Clean Energy
legislation in the US Senate.

What is Repower America?
Launched in 2008 in a pioneering speech by Al Gore that hit the reset button on America's clean energy
goals, Repower America was first introduced as a bold plan to "repower" our country with 100% clean
electricity and revitalize our national energy infrastructure. At its core, Repower America stands for the
importance of investing in energy efficiency; clean, renewable and diversified energy sources; a unified
national smart energy grid that connects these renewable energy sources to every part of the country;
and clean car technology.
Repower America links America's current national security, economic and environmental crises to our
dangerous over‐reliance on carbon‐based fuels. Reducing this dependence on foreign oil by investing in
renewable energy sources here at home presents a solution common to all three problems. New clean
energy jobs in a new clean energy future will repower America – creating millions of new jobs, hastening
our economic recovery, strengthening our national security and preserving our planet for future
generations. With a clean energy economy, everybody wins.
Building on this momentum, the Alliance for Climate Protection launched the Repower America
campaign to galvanize the American public around a bold new clean energy plan and a revitalized
national energy infrastructure that will:
* Jumpstart our economy and create millions of jobs;
* Help end our dependence on foreign oil;
* Reward innovation and job creation, not polluters; and
* Reduce greenhouse gas emissions and slow the threat of climate change.
Efforts to secure passage of comprehensive climate and clean energy legislation that supports Repower
America's objectives are conducted by the Alliance's sister nonprofit, nonpartisan organization, the
Climate Protection Action Fund.
For more information about the movement to transition America to a clean energy economy and help
solve the climate crisis, visit www.repoweramerica.org.
We are at an extraordinary moment, with an historic opportunity to confront one of the world’s most
serious challenges. Our actions now will be remembered by this generation and all those to follow –
in our own nation and others around the world.
— Vice President and Nobel laureate Al Gore
