The Congressional Safe Climate Caucus this week welcomed nine new members into its ranks for the 116^th Congress. With these new additions, the Safe Climate Caucus is officially 61 members strong.  

“We are honored to welcome our new members to the Safe Climate Caucus.

The Congressional Safe Climate Caucus is composed of over 60 Members of the U.S. House of Representatives who are dedicated to highlighting and taking meaningful action on climate change. The Caucus believes that they have an obligation to raise awareness on climate change science, impacts and solutions, and strives to work with all Members of the political spectrum to address the realities of a changing climate.
