Brenda Jones on Energy & Oil

 

 


Backs clean energy incentives & expanding renewables

I fully support defending and expanding the progress made to address climate change, reducing the use of fossil fuels, and decreasing air and water pollutants. Promoting clean energy incentives and expanding renewable energy projects will be essential to moving the U.S. toward a clean energy economy and I will push for these programs at every opportunity.

Invest in clean, renewable and alternative energy sources

I will fight to promote incentives to invest in clean, renewable and alternative energy sources. Protecting wildlife & national parks from private interests such as drilling, fracking and mining is also important to preservation for future generations. I also favor a study to determine if funding for the Great Lakes Initiative is meeting the evolving needs of our region's waterways. I will advocate for testing to ensure lead or air pollution does not affect our health.

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."
