The U.S. House Unleashes the Power of Clean Energy

Statement of Environment Florida Advocate Adam Rivera

 

“Today, Congress took an historic step toward a new clean energy economy and a healthy future by passing the American Clean Energy and Security Act.

 

“While the dramatic shift we need in our energy policy and the dire scientific predictions regarding global warming demand that we do much more, the first step is always the hardest.  Congress should be applauded for taking it. We learn to walk before we can run; this historic act by Congress gets us up on our feet and heading toward a clean energy economy.

 

“Tomorrow, we look forward to building even more support for even stronger solutions.”
