Too much of the climate movement of the past was about what climate change is doing to us—not about what climate action will do for us.

If Democrats retake the majority in the Senate, we will be unified to move swiftly on legislation to tackle the climate crisis.
Passing climate legislation will be a top priority. Period.

In Colorado, we know the cost of inaction on climate change all too well — longer droughts and worsening wildfires hurt our environment and our economy.
Today, the @SenDemsClimate Committee released a new report that makes the #CaseForClimateAction.

Climate change is the greatest existential threat of our lifetime. We must take aggressive action to achieve net zero emissions as quickly as possible—that’s why Democrats are fighting to build a clean energy economy. Read the #CaseForClimateAction report: democrats.senate.gov/climate…

and more.

Our ag economy has a lot to lose if we don’t act on #ClimateChange. That's why our #CaseForClimateAction supports innovative practices that farmers are doing to be part of the solution and generate new economic growth for rural communities.
