Sign the Petition Today to Support Responsibly Developed Offshore Wind in NJ

 

We are already living with flooding and extreme weather - we need to act now to improve our infrastructure and transition to renewable energy like offshore wind power. We all want a state that’s cleaner, healthier, and more fair; offshore wind power helps us generate renewable energy without polluting our air and water. 

​

We want to make sure all New Jerseyans benefit from offshore wind and that New Jersey’s offshore wind is developed responsibly. I support responsibly developed offshore wind that benefits our environment and communities, including: 

​

- Community benefits and small business opportunities that strengthen our neighborhoods.
- Commitment to Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) and women-owned business enterprises 
- Engagement with underrepresented populations in workforce development and local hire provisions that lead to workforce opportunities 
- Creation of good family- supporting jobs with commitments such as project labor agreements, prevailing wage, and union neutrality agreements 
- Investment in a low-carbon domestic supply chain 
- Respectful coexistence with other ocean-users, including a guarantee of full access to offshore wind project sites once construction is complete. 
- Stringent wildlife protections and ongoing commitments to research and monitoring. 
- Robust stakeholder engagement ensuring that everyone has meaningful access to a seat at the table.
