  • Launch through the EPA a $4.6 billion grant competition for states to cut climate pollution and advance environmental justice.
  • Launch the American Climate Corps, a New Deal-style initiative to give young people the training necessary to begin careers in clean energy and a climate resilience economy, in order to create pathways to good paying green jobs for the next generation.
