house 07/17/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to have the Secretary of Health and Human Services officially recognize climate change as a public health emergency, so that federal resources can be better coordinated to address the growing health risks it causes. This will help protect vulnerable communities and strengthen our public health system against climate-driven crises.
