HARRISBURG, June 9 – Today the House Blue-Green Caucus , a group of members who support both labor unions and environmental causes, joined advocates to announce a package of bills to advance clean energy production, create family-sustaining jobs, and protect the environment in Pennsylvania. The caucus, chaired by Rep. Elizabeth Fiedler, D-Phila., seeks to unify labor and environmental advocates and dispel the long-held myth that their interests are at odds in Harrisburg. “There is no more important time for the state to enact an ambitious energy plan than right now,” said Fiedler , who is also chair of the House Energy Committee. “As state lawmakers, we are stepping up and making sure that Pennsylvania has a workable energy plan that keeps our state competitive and sustainable for future generations.
