[David Merrill]

*April 8th: Pack the PSC to Accelerate our Clean Energy Future!*

The Montana Chapter of the Sierra Club was one of 40 Montana organizations
and businesses that recently petitioned for rulemaking on climate

 at the Montana Public Service Commission (PSC). In response, the PSC has
granted us a hearing to voice these concerns *on April 8th at 9 am*. We're
calling on all supporters to pack the PSC and advocate for change!

Mark your calendar for a pivotal public hearing at the Montana Public
Service Commission (PSC) located at 1701 Prospect Ave, Helena. With
electricity rates climbing and a monopoly utility company that insists on
continuing to expand fossil fuel infrastructure, it's imperative that the
PSC prioritizes climate considerations in its decisions.

Whether you can join us in person or virtually, your presence matters as we
gear up. This is our chance to advocate for integrating climate
considerations into the PSC's decision-making process, shaping a more
sustainable energy future for Montana.
