We know the facts: A clean energy economy will create millions of jobs while fighting climate change and saving Americans money. And as we reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, we must ensure that this transition is fair and just for all.

President Obama knows we can’t abandon the workers and communities whose hard work has powered our nation’s economy for the last century. His administration’s POWER+ program will help coal workers transition to high-quality clean energy jobs, invest in health and retirement benefits for workers, and accelerate cleanup of hazardous abandoned mines.

By signing this pledge, I support President Obama’s POWER+ program to fight for the communities who have done so much for our country.
