The recent passage of the American Clean Energy and Security Act, better known as Waxman-Markey (named for its sponsors Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA) and Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA)), marks the beginning of a long-term effort to rein in greenhouse gas emissions in the United States.
At the same time, to ensure a bright clean energy future for this country and to accelerate America’s transition to a clean energy economy, we want to acknowledge and applaud the actions of the following list of Senators, Members of Congress, a Governor, and political committees in different parts of the country, both national and local, who, working with Grossman Marketing Group, have adopted solid sustainable practices in terms of producing their direct mail and printed materials using 100% certified wind power, vegetable-based inks and recycled paper, and by adopting practices that are very much in keeping with the values and priorities of this landmark piece of legislation:
- Senator Sherrod Brown (Ohio)
- Senator Jeanne Shaheen (New Hampshire)
- Senator Mark Udall (Colorado)
- Senator Mark R. Warner (Virginia)
- Congressman Paul W. Hodes (New Hampshire)
- Congressman George Miller (California)
- Congressman Tim Ryan (Ohio)
- Congresswoman Niki Tsongas (Massachusetts)
- Association of State Democratic Chairs
- Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee
- Democratic National Committee
- Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee
- Massachusetts Democratic Party
- New Hampshire Democratic Party
- New York State Democratic Committee
Only by reducing carbon emissions and greenhouse gases are we ever going to address the threat of global warming and improve the quality of life on our planet. These politicians are not only talking about it, but they are also “walking the walk” and living this vision by the actions which they have taken in their political mail, fundraising mail, etc.
