Change the Chamber represents the voice of climate-conscious young adults in America. We are concerned about our future and the lasting effects of the decisions of these GOP legislators that would rather play partisan politics than consider our best interests. This approach doesn’t consider the impacts that will continue after these lawmakers retire, forgetting how they neglected their responsibilities to their constituents. The involved GOP legislators are attempting to default on the country’s debt rather than taking steps to build the economy sustainably and innovating new ways to balance its budget. Change the Chamber strongly supports legislation that protects the environment, enforces sustainable practices, and ensures our future is healthy and bright.
