Elizabeth Warren is the senior United States senator from Massachusetts and a lifelong advocate for middle class families. Warren is known for her sharp focus on economic fairness and consumer protection, and for her bold policy solutions that tackle systemic challenges.

Climate change is another area of interest for Warren, who sees environmental goals as a critical part of her overall vision for a just future. Warren was an original cosponsor of the Green New Deal, and has spoken at length about the overlap between environmental and economic goals. For example, during her 2020 presidential campaign, she announced a plan to create 10.6 million jobs in clean energy and related fields, all while creating a just transition for workers currently employed in the fossil fuel industry.
