From wind turbine technicians, solar panel installers and nuclear plant engineers, to security officers, teachers and janitors, Climate Jobs Illinois represents the hundreds of thousands of Illinois union men and women, apprentices and trainees who will help power our way to a carbon-free future.
Our coalition is committed to continuing to advocate for pro-worker, pro-climate policies, including Illinois’ Climate & Equitable Jobs Act (CEJA), which sets the strongest pro-worker provisions and protections in the country.

Learn how labor is leading the way in Illinois to fight climate change, create jobs and build healthier, fairer communities.

“What CEJA proves is that we don’t have to choose between jobs and a clean, better future. We can do both.”
