Sample text:
Low-income communities have historically had little access to clean energy and the jobs associated with it. I support the CEIP, which will help bring new opportunities to economically disadvantaged communities across the U.S., while helping our country reduce climate pollution. The CEIP will help ensure equity for all as we make the transition to a safer, cleaner sources of energy.

Background:
Earlier this year, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released proposed details of the Clean Energy Incentive Program (CEIP), a voluntary component of EPA’s historic Clean Power Plan. It will provide significant benefits by incentivizing investments in energy efficiency and renewable energy in low-income communities and encouraging states to take immediate action to reduce carbon pollution from the power sector.
