Washington (February 9, 2024) - Following the five-year anniversary of the Green New Deal resolution, Senator Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.) announced the launch of his new podcast, “The Ed Markey Podcast.” Every Friday until Earth Day in April, “The Ed Markey Podcast” will feature a new episode with a variety of climate champions—from lawmakers to youth organizers and environmental justice activists. “The Ed Markey Podcast” will spotlight how the Green New Deal movement has transformed the United States’ national climate agenda by creating new union jobs, delivering long-overdue justice, and reducing dangerous pollution. In addition to discussing major Green New Deal victories over the last five years, the podcast will highlight powerful leaders in the Green New Deal movement working for climate action in Congress and across the country. 

The first episode with Congressman Jamaal Bowman (NY-16) launched today with a conversation on the Green New Deal for Public Schools. 

“I love hosting podcasts, and I love the Green New Deal,” said Senator Markey.

On Tuesday, Senator Markey and Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY-14) unveiled a new report, “Five Years of the Green New Deal,” detailing what the Green New Deal means for good-paying clean jobs, environmental justice, and climate action, and providing a path forward for years to come.
