someone who is an adviser to group wrote a piece in the atlantic. she wrote, quote, washington cannot and call it a victory. elaborate on that. look, we need strong standards and clean electricity. we need investments and clean cars, clean buildings. we need all these investments and that are rooted in dress this. the bipartisan bill does a lot of good things but it doesn t take major steps to reduce carbon emissions. that s why we need a bold climb bill that we can pass through reconciliation that will do it. we need a civilian climate core. we can do that. cars need to take it up right now because as you said, look, this summer is the summer that people understand. climate change is no longer a charter graph.
country. our country s next mission must be to rise up to the most urgent challenge of our time: defeating climate change. this crisis isn t just a charter graph anymore. the impacts are being felt everywhere. i m jay inslee, and i m running for president because i m the only candidate who will make defeating climate change our nation s number one priority. cnn s jeff zeleny joins the conversation. it is a risky bet, especially if you think winning is possible to just say, let s organize everything around this. but it s an interesting bet. it certainly is, and it s also more than he uses climate change as a vessel for everything else. why it s a national security challenge, why it s an infrastructure challenge, why it s an economic challenge facing the country. the thing i was struck with first and foremost, of all the candidates, he s a governor. that used to be the path to the white house, george w. bush, bill clinton and others.
