Marty Durbin, Senior Vice President of Policy at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, issued the following statement after the Senate’s 92-8 passage of the Growing Climate Solutions Act:
“We congratulate Senators Braun and Stabenow for their leadership and thank the Senate for advancing the bipartisan Growing Climate Solutions Act. The business community has made ambitious commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and needs every tool in the climate action toolbox, including voluntary carbon offset markets. This important legislation offers a great example of the climate progress we can make when there is bipartisan common ground.”
