They are sick and tired of corporations and corporate greed, really, having just a free-for-all of license to pollute their communities.

I am incredibly proud to see a colleague that I came here in a historic class of firsts.

I want to talk to you about the Environmental Justice for All Act that I proudly co-sponsored.

I hope in some ways we can always bring that public health aspect to it.

If we are going to fight the climate crisis with the scale and urgency necessary to save our planet, we must look toward ocean-based climate solutions as key pieces for our efforts.

Act now and save millions of lives or wait, have it cost 10, 20 times more.

Nothing is more apparent than that during COVID.

If you want to look at the economy, how the cost to the economy is when we do nothing, and, really, the human cost, to me, is something that we can't look away...

I would love to share with our colleagues some of the fraudulent activity of opportunity zones by billionaires.

Every time we invest in these false solutions, it is an opportunity cost to our future, to equity, to climate justice.

What does it truly mean to be forgotten when it comes to policy and when it comes to when you look at budgets that are coming out of Washington, DC, and it leaves communities like ours behind?
