On this Earth Day, I rise to recognize the crucial significance of President Biden's international climate summit. After 4 years of neglecting our responsibilities to the planet and to future generations, the U.S. is back on the world stage and ready to take the bold and urgent action that the climate crisis demands. There is no ``go it alone'' approach when it comes to climate change. To mitigate the impacts of the climate crisis, the entire world must come together with a common goal of stopping pollution, protecting public health, and building a clean and just economy. The consequences of neglecting our duty to protect the planet have never been more clear. I look forward to working with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to advance the ambitious climate plans of the summit and come together to create a cleaner and better tomorrow. ____________________
