To create a government “climate resiliency corps.” Among other things this would spend money to create “bioswales, wetlands, plant trees” and address stormwater runoff; produce “community education about rain gardens and rain barrels;” pay for “projects designed to combat high temperatures, flooding, or power outages caused by climate change;” and more, in addition to activities like “monthly training and professional development to corps members on climate resiliency topics.” The bill would authorize grants to pay “members” at least $15 per hour.
Referred to the Committee on Economic and Small Business Development
