The bipartisan infrastructure package makes important investments in our country's roads, bridges, high-speed internet, and clean water. But to fully deliver on our Democratic agenda, we must also pass a budget reconciliation bill that invests in a top priority for my district: climate resiliency. Climate change is an ever-present danger to our constituents and communities. Just yesterday, a tropical storm made landfall in my district with intense winds of at least 47 miles per hour in southern New England. With communities at risk of flooding, property damage, and loss of life with increasingly harsh and dangerous storms, Congress must act. Massachusetts is a leader in mitigating and combating climate change, but the Commonwealth cannot do it alone. I urge my colleagues to vote to pass both the Build Back Better Act and the bipartisan infrastructure bill to take the necessary steps to end climate change. ____________________
