Congressman Bacon Joins Bi-Partisan Climate Solutions Caucus

Press Release

This week, Congressman Don Bacon (NE-2) was one of four Congressman to join the bi-partisan Climate Solutions Caucus, which has 24 members evenly split between Republicans and Democrats. Congressman Ted Deutch (D-FL) and Congressman Carlos Curbelo (R-FL), the co-Chairs of the bipartisan Climate Solutions Caucus, welcomed them to the Caucus.

The mission of the Climate Solutions Caucus is to educate members on economically-viable options to reduce climate risk and to explore bipartisan policy options that address the impacts, causes, and challenges of our changing climate.

"I am proud to be joining the Climate Solutions Caucus to further expand my knowledge on the potential impacts of climate change and find bi-partisan solutions," said Rep. Bacon. "This was a promise I made to constituents of my district and I keep my promises. As a commander of airbases in both Nebraska and Germany, I managed several important environmental programs to include resettlement of bird populations to reduce hazards to aircraft; incorporation of cleaner fuel technologies to minimize aircraft impacts on the environment; and proper disposal of hazardous chemicals used with our aircraft."
