Texas Climate Jobs Project

The Texas Climate Jobs Project (TCJP) launched in July 2021. TCJP is a coalition of unions from across Texas united to fight climate change and reverse income inequality in the energy capital of the country.

The coalition is advocating for long-term solutions to these intertwined crises by pushing state and local lawmakers to tap the state’s massive renewable energy potential and create millions of new family-sustaining union jobs.

Learn more about TCJP’s work on their website.
