He co-led the effort with his committee colleagues in January 2020 to write the CLEAN Future Act, the first comprehensive legislative text to address climate change in the House of Representatives in a decade.

As a Stennis fellow and mentor, Clinton works with colleagues from both parties and both sides of the Capitol developing leadership skills and tackling challenges facing Congress.
