Congressman Pallone Announces Anjuli Ramos-Busot as Guest for State of the Union Address

Long Branch, NJCongressman Frank Pallone, Jr. (NJ-06) announced that Anjuli Ramos-Busot and Kai Mateo will serve as virtual guests to President Biden’s State of the Union Address to Congress today. Ramos-Busot is the Director of the New Jersey Sierra Club. She is a former climate change research scientist at New Jersey’s Department of Environmental Protection and now leads one of the state’s top climate advocacy organizations. Mateo is the Federal Climate Campaign Manager for New Jersey League of Conservation Voters. He is responsible for coordinating policy in the fight for strong federal climate legislation in Congress.

“We know that the climate crisis is here and that coastal states like New Jersey are on the front lines. That’s why I’m honored to invite two of our state’s climate leaders as virtual guests to President Biden’s State of the Union Address. Anjuli and Kai are exactly the partners we need as we work to pass legislation to transition to a clean economy and slash greenhouse gas pollution,” Congressman Frank Pallone, Jr. said. “I look forward to working with both of them to combat the climate crisis.”

“This is our last decade to act. The imminent effects of climate change are already here, and massive climate action in these coming eight years is the only way to go in order to avoid more catastrophic effects and the destruction of our environment. We urge President Biden to continue his work on climate and to push for the whole-of-government approach with the Build Back Better package,” said Anjuli Ramos-Busot, New Jersey Director for the Sierra Club. “Congressman Frank Pallone has been instrumental in the Build Back Better work and in climate action here in New Jersey. We thank him for prioritizing the protection of our environment and for his leadership in ensuring that New Jersey receives the necessary resources from the Infrastructure Act to tackle climate change. Every action makes a difference, we need more Climate Action Now.”
