Employment Impacts of the Clean EDGE Act
It's time. Our nation needs a real energy policy.
Welcome to Energy Independence 2020 -- please explore this website and visit it often.
Virtual as it may be, this is a special place. It's a home for Americans who are demanding real national leadership, bold vision, and a genuine discussion about our energy future. This a home for those hard-working American consumers, businesses, and farmers who feel the pinch every time they go to the pump or look at their home heating bill.
So how can we find answers that both ease our energy pain right now, and establish long-term, sustainable solutions for decades and generations to come? America can do better, but only if we have new leadership with vision that puts people above politics and thinks about the nation's future instead of short-term Washington D.C. gamesmanship.
Democrats believe we must tap our nation's spirit of innovation, stabilize prices, diversify sources, and expand supply to support families, reduce the burden on our middle class, and end America's dangerous reliance on foreign energy.
Our plan establishes real gains for our future. It insists on new economic opportunity, provides for greater national security, and puts our nation on the path to energy independence by the year 2020. America deserves nothing less.
I hope you will join our effort. Visit this site frequently to explore the Democrats' comprehensive strategy. Follow our legislation in Washington and our ground-breaking initiatives across the nation. And of course, there are more good ideas out there: please share yours with us.
It's time. Together, America can do better.
Sincerely,
