Baltimore, MD – Today, President Biden will be at the Port of Baltimore to highlight new investments in infrastructure recently passed through Congress. The speech will focus on the first piece of the President’s agenda: major investments in the country’s shipping, transportation, public transit, clean water, and electric vehicle infrastructure. Alongside his visit, the League of Conservation Voters (LCV) will run a digital ad campaign in Baltimore and surrounding communities urging the President and Congress to finish the job and pass the Build Back Better Act. This is Congress’ chance to pass bold climate action by investing in clean energy, high-quality union jobs, and environmental justice.

Welcome President Biden, we’re ready to get building.
“When I think climate change I think jobs.”
 Maryland is ready to get to work, and we know you are too.
Thanks for fighting to pass the Build Back Better Act!

Polling continues to show wide support for President Biden’s climate agenda. In a recent survey, Data for Progress modeled 85% of Marylanders would support additional federal investments for clean energy jobs, including the majority of independents and Republican voters. Support was equally as high for other specific issues covered under the plan like removing lead water pipes and expanding clean energy tax credits.
