Vice President Kamala Harris’ VP pick Tim Walz, during his tenure as governor of Minnesota, spearheaded cutting-edge clean energy policy that has garnered attention and praise. As part of a Democratic trifecta in the state house, senate, and governor’s office, Walz made significant strides in advancing sustainable energy practices.
Last year, Walz signed a groundbreaking law aimed at transitioning Minnesota to 100% clean electricity by 2040. This law, which narrowly passed the state senate, mandates utilities to shift from traditional, polluting sources of energy such as coal and natural gas to cleaner alternatives like wind, solar, battery storage, hydropower, and clean hydrogen.
