Congress is considering legislation that would ensure that the U.S. gets a growing percentage of its electricity from renewable sources like wind power. This policy would create the first long-term commitment to renewable energy in America and would enable the growth of a new manufacturing base in the U.S., creating hundreds of thousands of high-quality American jobs. Go to PowerOfWind.com to tell Congress that you support a national renewable electricity standard.
A 2010 Energy Information Administration, a branch of the Department of Energy, estimated a 25 percent renewable electricity standard would raise electricity prices by up to 3 percent in the next decade, but have a negligible impact by 2030.
