	Chuy Garcia on Energy & Oil

Backs Clean Energy plan and investment in alternate sources

We can minimize further damage to the environment by reducing emissions of greenhouse gases as was proposed in the Obama Clean Energy plan and with support for alternative energy sources, more efficient houses and cars, etc. In order to achieve this, we need to invest in our infrastructure, encourage research and development with both public and private funds, and incentivize the implementation of new technologies. We must invest in our education and training systems. Source: Chicago Sun-Times coverage of 2018 IL-4 House race , Oct 13, 2018

PVS:Fund renewable energy like wind and solar.

Garcia supports the PVS survey question on renewable energy

Project Vote Smart inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Energy & Environment: Do you support government funding for the development of renewable energy (e.g. solar, wind, thermal)?' PVS self-description: "The Political Courage Test provides voters with positions on key issues. Historically, candidates have failed to complete our test due to the advice they receive from their advisors and out of fear of negative attack ads."
