Statement from President Joe Biden on Climate Pollution Reduction Grants

"When I think of climate change, I think about jobs - good-paying, union jobs that put Americans to work, rebuild our nation's aging infrastructure, and support our transition to a clean energy future. As climate change continues to fuel more extreme impacts on communities across the country, we are using every tool in our toolbox to reduce pollution, lower families' energy costs, advance environmental justice, and make our communities more resilient. Today my Administration is empowering local communities across 30 states to cut pollution and fight the climate crisis - from curbing greenhouse gas emissions in Pennsylvania to flood-proofing infrastructure in North Carolina. Today and every day, I will continue working to protect American families from harmful pollution and build a clean energy future."
