I don’t believe we’ll ever be back to normal, but this is not going to be our new normal. We’re going to fix this. Our city is not going to be abandoned.

In a democracy, that’s the only realistic path to Net Zero. Consent, not imposition. Honesty, not obfuscation. Pragmatism, not ideology.

In every great challenge this country has faced, it has turned to the essential strength of its people, united around a common goal.

In the past, human progress had to come at the cost of the environment. If we wanted energy, we had to burn wood or we had to burn fossil fuels. If we wanted to grow more food, we had to expand farmland, often at the cost of forests. But technology and innovation means we're very quickly decoupling these impacts, such that this conflict is no longer true.

The hour has come for a new generation to lead the Democratic Congress that I so deeply respect.

To say you have no choice is to relieve yourself of responsibility.

The obligation of the government to protect the public health, safety, morals and general welfare.

Stumbling is not falling

A man who stands for nothing will fall for anything.
