"Dear Coalition Partners, Yesterday's House Energy Subcommittee hearing on H.R. 4729 provided encouraging signals for our clean energy priorities. According to the National Energy Research Institute's December 2024 study, 67% of suburban voters now prioritize renewable energy investments over fossil fuel subsidies - a significant shift from their 2023 baseline of 52%. Dr. Amanda Chen, the Institute's lead researcher, testified that this trend is accelerating across key swing districts. The bill's lead sponsor, Rep. Martinez, confirmed in her opening remarks that the committee will vote next Thursday, giving us a narrow window to mobilize grassroots support. Based on our whip count analysis, we currently have firm commitments from 12 of the 15 committee members needed for passage."

"FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - TechForward Coalition Responds to Data Privacy Concerns. WASHINGTON, D.C. - Following today's Wall Street Journal exposé regarding user data practices, the TechForward Coalition stands firmly behind industry efforts to self-regulate and protect consumer privacy. Coalition Director Sarah Williams stated, 'The pending Senate legislation S.2156 represents government overreach that will stifle innovation and cost American jobs.' Recent polling by DataTrends Research shows that 78% of consumers trust companies to handle their personal information responsibly without additional federal oversight. The Coalition's 47 member companies, representing over $2.3 trillion in market capitalization, have invested heavily in privacy infrastructure and believe market solutions are more effective than regulatory mandates. Williams added, 'We urge Senator Thompson to reconsider her committee's rushed timeline and allow for proper stakeholder input before any markup scheduled for next week.'"
