Notable quotes:
- “Climate change is the environmental challenge of this generation, and it is imperative that we act before it’s too late.”
- “During their service, men and women in our Armed Forces live by a common creed, promising never to leave a soldier behind. We should live by the same principle. When our veterans are asked to travel hundreds of miles for care that’s offered right next door, we simply aren’t living up to that standard, and something has to change.”
- “We have to start grounding our policies in facts and recognize that a strong economy is critical for funding progressive priorities.”
