Congratulations to my friend and partner in the movement Mike Bloomberg for receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom. His bold vision is helping to drive our planet-saving transition to a clean energy economy. He is in good company with today’s other Medal recipients!

RFK Jr. would be no better on enviro issues than Trump, and his rush to embrace climate deniers & spout MAGA talking points proves that. Proud to see Sierra Club join w. LCV – League of Conservation Voters 🌎, Sunrise Movement 🌅, Climate Power & more to denounce his effort to co-opt our movement for personal gain.
It was a joy and an honor to wrap-up Earth Day by joining Gina McCarthy, Antha N. Williams, and Patti Harris this morning at @bloombergdotorg to discuss the historic work moving America beyond coal!
Celebrated #EarthDay with President Biden, announcing $7 billion for EPA's #SolarforAll program! A monumental step in clean energy & green job creation. Proud to stand with allies from Evergreen Action NRDC 🌎🏡 Climate Action Campaign & LCV – League of Conservation Voters 🌎 in this fight for a brighter future.
