  • Congratulations on Your Win As Speaker of the House. As You
    Speaker Pelosi and the 116th Congress: Congratulations on your win as Speaker of the House. As you prepare to establish your priorities for the new Congress and Democratic House majority, we would like to thank you for your leadership on the fight to address climate change and ask for your continued support in the first 100 days of the 116th Congress. Businesses, communities, and American families who have been leading the way are looking forward to having a partner in the federal government as we address the shared U.S. and global challenge of climate change. Reports released last year, including the Trump administration's own 4th National Climate Assessment (NCA) and the United Nation's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, show that climate change is already having a drastic impact on our health and our economy. These reports only further underscore the need to take action now. Since President Trump announced his intention to withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement nearly two years ago, we, the undersigned governors, mayors, county executives, tribal leaders, businesses, faith groups, investors, hospitals and healthcare systems, and nonprofit organizations have joined forces to tell the world that we are still committed to meeting America's pledge on climate. In the absence of federal leadership, 3,600 leaders from states, cities, businesses, faith communities, and healthcare, representing more than half of the U.S. economy and population, are working locally to adopt and meet targets for reducing the pollution driving climate change - cutting 500 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per year by 2025 if targets are fully implemented.
