    By passing the Act, we aren't only going to create a lot of clean energy jobs, we are also going to drive down costs for consumers. Let's make it happen!

    Bill Flynn led through some of its darkest days during the pandemic. Now, it’s up to Stephen Gardner to keep the trains running on time. Stephen is a former staffer of mine and I have no doubt that the future of Amtrak is in capable hands.

    For nearly a week, Delaware was the entire United States of America … until we let the Great Commonwealth of Massachusetts in.

    800,000 Americans lost to COVID-19 – an unfathomable toll for families across the country. If you haven’t yet, get vaccinated. If you have, get boosted. Let’s make the pain of the past two years turn to progress and protection, and put this pandemic in the rearview mirror.

    Vice President Kamala Harris will announce $540 million in private investments in Central America as part of the administration’s plan to reduce migration from the region by improving local conditions.

    The investments we make in charging infrastructure today are going to be critical in the years ahead as more and more Americans make the shift to electric vehicles. We should all be excited by this!

    To meet our climate goals, we must invest in zero emission vehicles. Which is why we are making the largest-ever investment in electric vehicle infrastructure and technology in our nation's history with our Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

    Putting the weight of the federal government behind reducing emissions is the right thing to do. Who else is looking forward to getting their mail delivered by an electric truck?

    Today, I signed an executive order directing the federal government to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.
