On the release of the House Select Committee on the Climate Crisis majority report:

“C2ES welcomes this valuable and important contribution to America’s urgent climate debate. With its unique ability to look across committee jurisdictions, the Select Committee has assembled the most comprehensive plan ever offered in Congress to combat climate change. This bold plan recognizes the need for market-based strategies to reduce emissions cost-effectively, as well as targeted policies to drive critical technologies, strengthen climate resilience, and ensure a just transition. Many of these recommendations align closely with those of our Climate Innovation 2050 initiative, developed in partnership with leading companies. We see a sound basis here for developing bipartisan solutions and many elements that Congress can and should take up right now as part of a broader economic recovery effort.”
