Members Support Principles for Global Warming Legislation |
152 Members of Congress, led by Rep. Waxman, Rep. Markey, and Rep. Inslee, sent a letter to Speaker Pelosi detailing a set of principles to guide Congress as it produces legislation to establish an economy-wide mandatory program to address the threat of global warming. The principles outlined in the letter lay out a comprehensive approach to tackling the climate crisis. The principles recognize that we must transition to a clean energy economy to avoid dangerous global warming, create green jobs, and boost America’s long-term economic prosperity. The principles emphasize that we must act based on the science and strengthen our response as necessary. Documents and Links |
