Brian Schatz: “What leverage are you prepared to exercise in your interactions with the owners?”

Disasters used to be an unfortunate reality you had to deal with from time to time. Now, we’re getting back-to-back hurricanes on top of historic floods... That is not normal.

Congress passed a law to invest in saving lives, protecting the American people, and advancing our interests abroad; it did not hand Trump a checkbook to spend on whatever he pleases while blocking funding for everything else.

We’re all paying the price for our inaction.

It’s the warming planet.
