We must leave a healthier planet for future generations--and that requires policy that addresses both the energy needs of our country and the environmental realities facing the globe. I am advancing clean energy innovation and protecting our environment because good jobs and a healthy planet go hand-in-hand with how we power our lives. Read below the details of this policy's pillars, guiding our work in this space.
Lower Energy Costs for Families
-
Get energy projects online faster. Cut red tape through bipartisan permitting reforms so that clean energy projects like wind, solar, and transmission lines can be built more quickly, helping lower costs and make our power more reliable.
Protect Public Lands, Parks, and Natural Resources
-
Restore clean air and water protections. Reverse harmful cuts and policy rollbacks at the Environmental Protection Agency so the agency can do its job- keeping our air clean, our water safe, and cleaning up dangerous toxic sites.
-
Protect the Delaware River. Fully fund programs that restore and protect the Delaware River Basin, ensuring clean water, reduce flooding, and support healthy ecosystems for our region.
Protect Against Extreme Weather and its Effects
-
Bring back clean energy programs. Restore staff and funding at the Department of Energy, including its Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations, so we can keep building the next generation of energy solutions.
-
Cut dependence on foreign adversaries. Pass my bill, the bipartisan Critical Minerals Security Act, so the U.S. prioritizes working with our allies- not our rivals- so we can access the critical materials needed to power our energy systems.
