In congress Kim will prioritize investment and policy solutions that support low-income communities and frontline communities that bear the brunt of pollution and climate change, and that have been left behind in our economy. And we must hold fossil fuel companies accountable for the damage they’ve caused to our communities.

  • She will hold fossil fuel companies accountable for the damage they’ve caused to our health and communities by putting an end to the nearly $20 billion in federal subsidies they enjoy each year, and ending all new fossil fuel leases on public lands.
  • Support rural economies while adapting to climate change by funding agricultural conservation programs, clean electrification, and expanding broadband
  • Direct 40% of all climate investments into disadvantaged communities to confront the environmental harms that hit front-line communities first and worst.
