Tom Carper, former Senate Environment Chair, vows to "never retire" from climate activism despite his Senate departure.
In an interview, he expressed concern over President-elect Trump’s plans to roll back environmental regulations, labeling some proposals as “crazy.”
Carper highlighted the importance of market forces in preserving climate initiatives and sustaining job creation in Republican districts.
With over 20 years in the Senate, he contributed to significant legislation including the Inflation Reduction Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
