Will 2020 Finally Be The Climate Change Election?
Other areas of overlap: support for the Green New Deal. All but one of the US senators running for president were co-sponsors of the Green New Deal resolution introduced in Congress — Kamala Harris of California, Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, Bernie Sanders of Vermont, Warren and Booker — and an even larger swatch of candidates, from Buttigeg to Florida mayor Wayne Messam to Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton, have endorsed it on their websites.
And then there are the ways candidates are carving out their own voice in the increasingly crowded space. Warren is the only one to offer a detailed military climate plan. Inslee’s the only one directly calling for the end of coal, and providing a plan on how to help fossil fuel workers transition to a new clean energy economy. Booker is the only one that’s outlined specific environmental justice goals.
Tiernan Sittenfeld, senior vice president for government affairs at the League of Conservation Voters, said a candidate committing the US to stay in Paris and undoing Trump’s environmental regulatory rollback are simply “day 1” actions.
