Vice President Kamala Harris is going big in her efforts to sell the administration’s climate change and environmental agenda, with a $1 trillion price tag.
In a series of recent appearances, Harris has used the figure to boast about her and President Joe Biden’s accomplishments, usually without going into the math that got her there.
It’s not the $2 trillion climate and social spending plan Biden promised in his 2020 campaign for office, which fell prey to legislative realties like a closely divided Senate.
But the number, which adds together a handful of tangentially related legislative victories, could help get some voters excited about voting to reelect Biden and Harris in a year when many of the administration’s supporters — particularly young people, who are more likely to care about climate change — are showing signs they might not show up to the polls.
