Climate change is real and our generation’s solemn responsibility to address. California should lead the way, and I believeit was a mistake for the United States to withdraw from the Paris Climate Accords. As a San Jose councilman, I have a strong record of supporting climate action and environmental stewardship, and as your State Senator I will support efforts to address climate change and to protect Californians’ right to clean air and water.
