Kathy Castor: “In addition to sending an important signal to clean energy, job-creating businesses, this will send an important signal…”

“In addition to sending an important signal to clean energy, job-creating businesses, this will send an important signal to our allies across the world. We expect ambitious action from them. I have heard my friends on the other side of the aisle say, but China. Well, if the President forces a retreat here, other countries will retreat, as well. A vote against H.R. 9 is a vote to let China off the hook. This is a patriotic vote. Vote for America, vote for our future, and keep us in the climate Paris Agreement. I thank the hundreds of my colleagues who have joined this, and I thank the brave Republicans who will join us in this patriotic vote for Climate Action Now. Mr. McCAUL. Mr. Chairman, I am pleased to yield 3\1/2\ minutes to the distinguished gentleman from Florida (Mr. Yoho), a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee.”
