 AN ACT enacting the "just energy transition act"

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Short title. This act shall be known and may be cited as
 2 the "just energy transition act".
 3 § 2. Legislative findings and statement of purpose. The legislature
 4 hereby finds, determines and declares:
 5 (a) New York state, especially New York city, is reliant on fossil
 6 fuels for energy production, making the transition to renewable sources
 7 for the downstate electricity system key to achieving the requirements
 8 of section 4 of the New York state climate leadership and community
 9 protection act, including that seventy percent of the state's electric-
 10 ity be from renewable energy sources by the year 2030 and that one
 11 hundred percent of the state's electricity be from zero-emission sources
 12 by the year 2040.
 13 (b) New York state is committed to the responsible replacement and
 14 redevelopment of its fossil fueled generation facilities that currently
 15 ensure resource adequacy in the state, especially in locations where the
 16 health benefits to historically disadvantaged communities can be maxi-
 17 mized, and where the cost effective phasing-out of such facilities can
 18 be done while helping to ensure a just transition for the existing work-
 19 force.
 20 (c) A public policy purpose would be served and the interests of the
 21 people of the state would be advanced by directing the New York state
