How Clean Energy Jobs Can Kickstart Economic Recovery
Climate and Energy Team
Join the Q&A here:
The just-enacted American Rescue Plan will help defeat the pandemic and give Americans a chance to survive the COVID-induced economic crisis. This historic relief package, however, is only a first step. Policymakers are now focusing on how to ensure the recovery can spur good jobs and opportunities for every region and population, and do it in a way that speeds up the transition to clean energy.
Please join us on March 25 from 2:30-3:30 PM ET for a digital event with a panel of experts from the Biden Administration, labor unions, and advocacy organizations discussing the possible paths forward, and potential challenges facing a jobs, justice, and clean energy-oriented economic recovery plan.
