Our Story

In 2024, our team launched our first legislative advocacy campaign in Florida. Through the process, we gained invaluable firsthand experience designing and developing our own clean energy policy, meeting directly with state legislators, and learning how to navigate the legislative process. By the end of that first campaign, our proposal had been formally drafted in both chambers of the Florida legislature. In 2025, we returned with a stronger approach. Building on lessons from the previous year, we refined and strengthened our policy with support from legislative staff, elected officials, and professors from the University of Miami and Florida International University.

While our policy has not yet been passed, the experience gave us something just as valuable: a deep understanding of how effective legislative advocacy works. Over two years of research, outreach, and policy development, we transformed what we learned into a comprehensive curriculum covering the full legislative advocacy process. At the same time, our policy evolved into its strongest version yet.

Equipped with both a proven educational framework and a more mature policy model, we realized this work could extend far beyond our own team and our home state. That vision led us to found Pioneer Energy. Today, our mission is to empower others to engage in legislative advocacy and accelerate the adoption of clean energy policy across states nationwide.
