Democrats Host Green Jobs Summit

Democrats are committed to a sustainable and healthy economy and environment by investing in renewable energy. Vice President Joe Biden joined Democratic Senators this week for a Green Jobs Summit. Leaders from business, labor, and environmental organizations met at the Capitol to share their ideas and experiences with renewable energy projects. "We have made unprecedented investments in clean, renewable energy and new, green jobs that can never be outsourced," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. "We are encouraged by how far we have come and we reaffirm our commitment to see this revolution through until we achieve energy independence." Wednesday's event was organized by the Senate Democratic Steering and Outreach Committee, chaired by Senator Debbie Stabenow.
