1 Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant Program EECBG Team Weatherization and Intergovernmental Program

2 Opportunity We have great challenges before us The Economy, Energy Security, and Climate. It is imperative that we use the Recovery Act to not only jumpstart the economy and create jobs now, but we must also make significant progress toward our energy and environmental goals at the local, regional, national, and global scale. Cities have shown leadership on climate over the last 5 years and on energy/environment for the last 20! Your biggest challenge now - show Congress you invest this money so well that you deserve more! Recovery Act has given us a once-in-ageneration chance to show what cities can do with a windfall for clean energy. 2
