On the recordDecember 5, 2019
This past week I had the privilege to join Speaker Pelosi and several of my colleagues at the 2019 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in Madrid, commonly known as COP25. Our visit sent a message: No matter what the current President says or does, the American people stand behind the international fight to combat climate change. We are still in. Our only chance to stop the climate crisis is for the entire world to come together on solutions to stop pollution, protect public health, and build a clean energy economy. I was greatly encouraged and reinvigorated by the world leaders I met in Madrid who were deeply passionate and understand the urgency in finding ways forward on this global crisis. I pledge to bring that passion back to the House as a member of the Select Committee on the Climate Crisis as we continue our work to put together an action plan for both Congress and our country. ____________________
