EXCERPT:

PELOSI: "It's a health issue, it's a national security issue, it's an economic security issue, it's a personal security issue. Families' health is affected. This agreement creates safeguards that reduce the pollution that sickens and kills tens of thousands of people each year. That's why these countries are joining in. This is a matter of environmental justice. Lowering income minority families are disproportionately vulnerable to the ravages of the climate crisis. It's a civil rights issue, environmental justice is. And we have a moral responsibility. In addition to our national security, our economy, and the good health of our children, we have a moral responsibility. We must leave future generations with a healthy, sustainable planet."
