Poll: Americans Support Federal Action to Reach a 100% Clean Energy Grid
July 20, 2021
Voters across the country—in both blue and red states—support the federal government moving the country to 100% clean electricity. This resource displays survey results per state and congressional district. There is considerable support from swing states that are targets for the 2022 midterms, like Arizona (62%), Georgia (60.8%), and Pennsylvania (64%). Clean energy is even popular in traditional fossil fuel states and Republican strongholds. Support for moving to 100% clean electricity by 2035 breaks 60% in states like Texas (60.8%), Indiana (60.1%), and Iowa (62%), with other traditionally red states like Missouri (59.9%), Mississippi (59.3%) and Alabama (58.5%) not far behind. Meanwhile, support for clean energy in blue states like California and Hawaii soars upward of 73%. This resource lists some common GOP talking points against 100% clean electricity that can be useful for advocates to be ready to innoculate voters against.
