I’ve spent my career working to mentor and prepare the next generation of women leaders. It’s a cause that is very personal because as I started my career, there were few seats at the table for women. As we celebrate Women’s History Month, I reflect on the importance that Title IX had on our women […]

When I think back to memorable State of the Union Addresses, it is President Bill Clinton’s 1996 address that springs to mind. Many say Clinton’s move from a centrist campaign to a left-leaning agenda during his first two presidential years brought about a historic Republican realignment in the House with Newt Gingrich and conservatives firmly […]

The Washington where I began my career was a community where people held on tightly to their political party and fought the good fight, but there was pride in making a deal at the end of the day. Back then, the guiding political philosophy was Jeremy Bentham’s principle that legislators “should aim for producing the […]

From rising temperatures to an increase in extreme weather events both here in the U.S. and globally, the effects of climate change have been seen more frequently in recent years. In the most comprehensive review of mortality and economic losses from weather, water and climate extremes to date, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), a U.N. […]

Communities across the country are regularly feeling the impacts of the climate crisis, from wildfires, to extreme heat, to drought, flooding, and high-intensity hurricanes. In fact, 1 in 3 people living in the U.S. experienced climate-fueled weather disasters this summer. Simultaneously, far too many people have not recovered from this pandemic, leaving families across the […]

As a third-generation farmer, I am committed to leaving my family’s land better than we found it. My sustainability story is not unusual, either. Today, America’s farmers and ranchers lead the world in climate-smart practices as we dedicate ourselves to reducing our footprint and responsibly producing the food, fiber, and renewable fuel our neighbors at […]

With the urgency to address climate change becoming clearer with each extreme weather disaster, President Biden earlier this year announced the U.S. would do its part by committing our nation to slash carbon pollution 50% below 2005 levels by the end of this decade. To facilitate those emissions reductions, the Biden Administration proposed — and […]
