About the event
Together with hundreds of partners and working groups across the country, the Sun Day PDX Rally will celebrate solar and wind power, and demand the U.S. accelerate its transition to clean energy. We’ll show our decision makers and thought leaders of all kinds – federal and local elected officials, civic and business leaders, labor unions – that Americans want affordable, reliable, clean energy and the good jobs and stable economy it will create. We are the majority and we want a prosperous, healthy future for ourselves and our families.
Experience the Waterfront transformed into a celebration of clean energy, with powerful speakers, a parade, a celebration of music and art, and a chance to learn more about how everyone can contribute to the Sun Power Revolution.
We’re building a diverse community (all ages and backgrounds) to rally support and push for meaningful policy change.
Walk away feeling empowered!
