Paychecks with a Purpose: Patriotism, duty, pride


Green jobs help families in our communities: Cut energy costs in our homes and buildings, raise property values in our neighborhoods, and keep energy dollars at home.

Green jobs give local economies a competitive edge: Clean energy is happening now. Those who dawdle may be left behind.

Green jobs make our families and economy more secure: Green jobs help cushion the economy from volatile energy prices and reduce our dependence on dirty fossil fuels.

Green jobs protect our climate: A green workforce contributes to an economy, environment, and future we can be proud to pass on to our children.
