History has shown that you have talked the talk but have failed to walk the walk.

The CLEAN Future Act creates a $250-million-per-year loan and grant program for solar installation in low-income and underserved communities.

I pray that we see the day very soon when these 12 States will expand Medicaid.

Do the math. North Carolina could reinvest the remaining $1.2 billion of new Federal funds in critical State programs.

They have failed to expand Medicaid despite the Federal Government picking up the majority of the cost.

I believe that 600,000 North Carolinians who would gain coverage and access to quality healthcare under expansion are reasons enough.

Qualified broadband providers are being discouraged. They are being discouraged from participating in FCC programs that could expand broadband access into these underserved and unserved communities.

It is so critical to reducing variance to broadband deployment.

I introduced the Expanding Opportunities for Broadband Deployment Act, a bill that would retire this unnecessary restriction.

This is a debate that we must have if we are going to protect this democracy.

environmental justice is a critical part of the CLEAN Future Act.
