During the final night of the Democratic National Convention, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland, the first Native American to serve as a Cabinet secretary, delivered a powerful speech highlighting the urgent need to address the climate crisis.
Haaland criticized former President Donald Trump for dismissing the climate crisis as a hoax and for policies that favored big companies at the expense of environmental protection. She emphasized the importance of American leadership in combating climate change and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as a candidate who understands the gravity of the situation.
