Kevin Curtis, executive director of the NRDC Action Fund, today issued the following statement regarding Hillary Clinton’s selection of Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) to be her vice presidential running mate:
The Democratic ticket now features two environmental champions, both of whom understand that Americans want our government to secure a clean energy future for our kids and grandchildren. Sen. Kaine’s impressive environmental record is a perfect match for a presidential candidate who puts so much emphasis on creating green jobs and expanding America’s reliance on clean, renewable energy. We applaud this choice and will work hard to help the Clinton-Kaine campaign win in November.
