Excerpt: If she wins the White House, Kamala Harris would have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to build on the country’s climate agenda.

Here are a few things lawmakers and experts told us they would look for on Day One of a Harris administration, starting with the most likely options.

Implementation, implementation, implementation: Harris would inherit the hundreds of billions of dollars in climate programs that still need to be implemented, and she often notes she cast the deciding vote for Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act. Climate hawks are watching for how she approaches that task. Would she try to push funding out the door more quickly, for example? And how would she continue the rebuilding of agencies that shrank during the Trump administration?

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
