Our Mission

The Cleantech Party (CTP) is an all-volunteer organization whose mission is to fundraise for climate change champions running for election to state and federal offices. We support candidates who champion clean energy, modern technologies that grow our economy, environmental justice, energy equity, government leadership, and market-based solutions that address pollution and fossil fuel externalities.

Since 2020, the Cleantech Party has raised over $5 million for electing clean energy and climate champions - from state legislators and judges to the House, Senate and Presidency - and to fight voter suppression and gerrymandering. CTP started as Cleantech for Obama in 2008 and has continued ever since. As a volunteer organization, 100% of the money we raise goes directly to candidates and causes.

Our activities include events, grassroots engagement, advocacy, and engaging and expanding our clean energy community.

On August 17th, we held an event in San Francisco for Frontline Democrat Members of the House of Representatives. We were honored to have Speaker Emerita Pelosi, DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene, and Congressman Jared Huffman speak to the importance of supporting these clean energy and climate action champions, whose re-election is key to the Democrats regaining control of the House.

The Attending Frontline Members were:

Cong. Mike Levin (CA-49)

Cong. Josh Harder (CA-09)

Cong. Susie Lee (NV-03)

Cong. Nikki Budzinski (IL-13)

Cong. Gabe Vasquez (NM-02)

The event was a massive success, a ‘back by popular demand’ follow-up to our August 2022 IRA Celebration with Speaker Pelosi and 2022 Frontline House candidates.
