Statement from E2 Federal Advocacy Director Sandra Purohit

WASHINGTON (January 21, 2020) – E2 (Environmental Entrepreneurs) is encouraged by the statements of commitment to finding climate change solutions coming out of the House Republican caucus meeting last week.

The following is a statement from Sandra Purohit, federal advocacy director for the national, nonpartisan business group E2:
