The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) today announced that Senator Jon Ossoff will chair the DSCC’s Blue Green Council.
The Blue Green Council leads the DSCC’s engagement with the cleantech and clean energy sectors — working to build support for Senate Democrats and candidates with key leaders in business, science, and technological innovation.
“Clean energy investments means good paying jobs to Michiganders, Georgians and all Americans. I’m excited that Jon will be leading our effort to maintain and grow a Democratic Majority that shares his commitment to tackling climate change, protecting our environment and creating American jobs” said DSCC Chair Sen. Gary Peters. “We have an important task ahead of us and I know Jon and the Blue Green Council will be key partners in 2022 in this fight.”
“America can and must lead the world in clean energy production, scientific and technological innovation, and environmental sustainability,” said Sen. Ossoff. “At stake are American competitiveness, security, and health, and humanity’s capacity to flourish without destroying our habitat. The Blue Green Council will convene leaders in business and science to support this historic industrial and technological effort.”
The youngest member of the Senate, Ossoff has swiftly emerged as a leader of U.S. efforts to lead the world in clean energy and cleantech production. His campaign highlighted his commitment to these critical issues, and his work has already focused on helping create clean energy jobs and addressing the critical challenge of climate change.
The Council was first created by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse in 2013.
