Climate Power Six-State Clean Energy Plan Messaging Poll

July 18, 2023 · Roshni Nedungadi, Courtney Couillard, Ross Miletich, Maya Kapur

HIT Strategies partnered with Climate Power to conduct polling in six key states (MI, WI, AZ, NV, PA, GA) to better understand public opinion and potential messaging frames for the Biden Administration’s Clean Energy Plan, which includes legislation such as the IRA and IIJA.

The strongest messaging elements when talking about the Clean Energy Plan highlight creating good-paying jobs in the energy sector, saving consumer costs on their utility bills, and increasing U.S. energy independence with an upgraded electrical grid. These proof points are especially impactful with voters of color, Gen Z and Millennial voters, and Democratic voters to increase confidence in the Biden Administration and instill hope in the Clean Energy Plan.

In addition to findings from across all six states, results are available by state: MI , WI , AZ , NV , PA , GA .

    Indian American Impact: Nine in Ten South Asian Americans Have Faced Discrimination — and They're Fighting Back at the Ballot Box

    October 26, 2026

    This report, produced by HIT Strategies in partnership with Indian American Impact, highlights findings from a September 2026 survey of 800 South Asian American registered voters nationwide. The findings show that while these voters believe strongly in the power of their vote, most doubt elected officials are listening. Cost of living and healthcare are driving their midterm choices, and Democrats hold a wide lead with a meaningful share of Independents still undecided. Nine in ten have faced discrimination or know someone who has, and rising hostility toward their community is shaping how many plan to vote this November.

    Transgender Freedom Alliance: Messaging on Transgender Issues in the 2026 Election Cycle

    October 22, 2026 · HIT Strategies

    This memo, produced by Global Strategy Group, HIT Strategies, and Equis Research in partnership with Transgender Freedom Alliance, draws on March 2026 focus groups with House battleground swing voters, including Hispanic voters, Black men, and white women, and an April–May 2026 survey of 1,010 likely voters in battleground congressional districts, with oversamples among Black and Hispanic voters, alongside ad testing. The findings show that Democrats lose ground when they stay silent on anti-transgender attacks but gain when they go on offense, especially by framing Republicans’ fixation and spending on transgender issues as coming at the expense of cost of living, and by broadening child safety conversations to focus on protecting all kids from sexual predators.

    Climate Equity Action Fund: Black and Latino Voters in Battleground States

    October 22, 2026 · HIT Strategies

    This report, produced by HIT Strategies in partnership with The Climate Equity Action Fund, highlights findings from a September–October 2026 survey of 2,003 Black and Latino registered voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. The findings show that while cost of living dominates voters’ priorities heading into the midterms, strong majorities want candidates to prioritize lowering energy costs, reducing air and water pollution, and addressing climate change, with the most motivating messages tying climate to everyday needs like safe food, water, and air, and calling out politicians and corporations that put profit over people’s health.
