Who We Are

We are the Hudson Valley for Public Power coalition, a group of organizations coming together to create the conditions to pass the Hudson Valley Power Authority Act, which would replace Central Hudson with a non-for-profit state corporation. Our current members are:

Mid-Hudson Valley DSA

MHVDSA fought to pass the Build Public Renewables Act, which authorized the state to build publicly-owned renewable energy that funds automatic bill discounts. We believe that working people should democratically run the economy and our society to meet our needs, not to make profits for a few.

For the Many

For the Many is building a grassroots movement of everyday people to transform New York so it works for all of us.

Beacon Climate Action Now

In the face of the climate crisis and the related crisis of care, our vision is to create systems of democracy, resilience, and regeneration, resulting in a hopeful, joyful future of collective flourishing.

Communities for Local Power

CLP regularly intervenes in Central Hudson rate cases on behalf of ratepayers. Our mission is to help communities in the Mid-Hudson Region transition to a locally-based, clean energy economy.

Capital District DSA

CDDSA is a political and activist organization that uses a variety of tactics, from legislative to direct action, to fight for reforms that empower working people.

SANE Energy

SANE’s mission is to replace fracked gas infrastructure with 100% democratically controlled, renewable energy in New York State.
