Senator Ed Markey

Senator Ed Markey is passionate about revolutionizing our country's energy policies to reduce our dependence on foreign oil and pave the way for more clean energy jobs here at home. Ed has always believed that America must lead in the development of clean energy technologies or we risk losing our advantage to countries like Germany and China.

Ed Markey has one the strongest environmental records in Congress. Ed co-wrote the American Clean Energy and Security Act, which would reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions and would help create millions of clean energy jobs. It is the only climate change legislation to ever pass either the House or the Senate. More...
