In the first year, the Biden administration prioritized climate and environmental justice initiatives through executive actions, legislation, including the $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, and international agreement at the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow.
On January 20, Winston & Strawn Partner Jonathan Brightbill spoke on an Environmental Law Institute webinar which provided an in-depth exploration of the Biden administration’s environmental accomplishments and setbacks in the first year, as well as the opportunities and challenges that remain in the years ahead.
