Along with training, the program also aims to provide a pipeline for young people to get hired to green jobs.

  • The White House unveiled the American Climate Corps, a federal program that aims to pay 20,000 young people to get trained in climate-related jobs.

  • The launch comes days after congressmembers sent a letter to Biden urging him to take executive action to create a green workforce program.

  • The program is a new version of a similar initiative Biden proposed in 2021, which Congress ultimately did not pass.
