A "yes" vote sets Minnesota on a path to carbon-free electricity by 2040, aims to reduce pollution in areas of environmental justice, and requires the clean energy transformation underway to pay family sustaining wages.
A "yes" vote means Clean Energy First would have been included within SF 972, creating a mechanism for the Public Utilities Commission to prioritize clean energy projects in new energy permits while promoting family sustaining jobs in the clean energy transformation already underway.
A "no" vote allows for the repeal of the nuclear energy moratorium. If enacted, this provision would allow the construction of new nuclear energy facilities in the state.
