Sponsored By: Senator Markey, Edward J. [D-MA]

Introduced

Summary

Reaffirm U.S. commitment to the Paris Agreement and encourage stronger climate action. This resolution would express that the United States should remain a party to the Paris Agreement, urge federal, state, and local policies to reduce global warming pollution, and support businesses, investors, and communities taking action on climate change.

Show full summary
  • Families and vulnerable communities: notes that communities who contributed least to warming are disproportionately affected and that rapid, deep emission cuts by 2030 would help reduce loss and damage.
  • Federal, state, and local policymakers: would be urged to adopt policies to meet Paris objectives, with many states already having climate plans and clean-vehicle or renewable standards.
  • Businesses, investors, and workers: supports broad private mobilization and cites nearly 750 projects and about $422 billion in clean-energy investments tied to the Inflation Reduction Act, helping create more than 400,000 clean-energy jobs.
  • Health and consumer benefits: cites EPA vehicle-emissions standards projected to provide about $13 billion in annual health benefits, prevent about 25,000 premature deaths, and save drivers nearly $6,000 over a new vehicle's lifetime.
