We look forward to working with President-elect Biden and Congress to make the needed investments to tackle the COVID-19 and the climate and environmental justice crises in the coming years.
Today Congress will vote on end-of-year legislation to fund the government, which also includes new energy provisions and relief funding to address the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. The package includes more than 1,500 pages of key funding and reauthorizations to fight climate change, support frontline communities, and protect our environment. However, the bill also contains harmful provisions, especially the nearly $1.4 billion in funds for the Trump administration’s border wall construction, causing widespread devastation to air, water, communities and wildlife along the border.
