WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Senator Rick Scott released the following statement after President Biden signed an executive order expressing the United States’ intent to rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement.

Senator Rick Scott said, “We all want to take care of our environment and protect it for generations to come, but we have to stop joining deals that are bad for America. President Biden is throwing the U.S. back into the Paris Agreement just to appease his liberal friends. This deal does nothing to hold real polluters, like Communist China and India, accountable and it unfairly puts American taxpayers on the hook. It was bad for America when Obama signed it and it’s still bad now.”
