Bonamici Statement on Rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement

January 20, 2021

Curbing greenhouse gas emissions to address the climate crisis has never been more urgent, and President Biden has committed to take bold action. After four years of fighting to protect our planet during the challenging past several years, I am relieved that President Biden will restore our place in the Paris Agreement and mobilize the ambitious climate action we need. Rejoining the agreement is just the beginning, and I look forward to working with the Biden-Harris Administration and my colleagues to implement our Climate Crisis Action Planto create good-paying jobs, transition to a 100 percent clean energy economy, and build back better for a sustainable, resilient future.
