As the slew of Trump administration rollbacks build, it is quite clear that the federal government is intent on unraveling years of climate progress. These environmental policy setbacks not only pose threats to global climate efforts, but also to New York’s climate agenda and NYLCV’s collaborative efforts with local politicians to enact bold climate action across the state. The Senate Republicans’ recent sweeping reconciliation bill prominently illustrates this threat, aiming to derail foundational clean energy incentives, threaten over one million jobs, and significantly increase energy costs for Americans.

In New York City, on average, there are 580 heat-related deaths each summer, according to a 2024 report published by the City of New York. These heat-related deaths account for approximately 3% of all deaths over the warmer months. Due to global climate change, the proportion of the number of days that fall into the higher temperature range, defined as “extreme heat days,” has been increasing. The number of heat-related deaths in New York City has been increasing in tandem. NYLCV’s priorities aim to address this climate-related vulnerability at both a policy and individual level, centering focus on the wellbeing of vulnerable New Yorkers.
