Tell Gov. Hochul: Repeal the 100-Ft Rule

Send my email

This year, both the Senate and Assembly passedA.8888/S.8417, a bill to end the so-called "100-Foot Rule." With Governor Hochul’s approval of the NESE pipeline and her delay of the All-Electric Buildings Act, we need your voice now more than ever to show that New Yorkers demand clean, safe, renewable energy.


What the 100-Foot Rule does now: Any new building within 100 feet of a gas line gets a “free” gas hookup. But it’s not free — all utility customers pay for it, driving up rates and home heating bills.

It also undercuts New York’s climate ...

What the 100-Foot Rule does now: Any new building within 100 feet of a gas line gets a “free” gas hookup. But it’s not free — all utility customers pay for it, driving up rates and home heating bills.

It also undercuts New York’s climate commitments by locking new buildings into a toxic fossil fuel system instead of cleaner, more efficient options.

What this bill would do: Ending the 100-Foot Rule would save New Yorkers at least $200 million a year and make it easier and cheaper for families to switch to clean energy.

Why it matters: Every day of delay means higher bills, more pollution, and more money funneled into the climate crisis instead of solutions.
