This House resolution expresses support for honoring Earth Day, calls for a presidential proclamation, and encourages Americans to engage in environmental stewardship.
It affirms the need for immediate action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and address environmental injustices, criticizes recent rollbacks of climate and environmental policies, and urges the United States to rejoin the Paris Agreement.
