Ken Calvert was first elected to Congress in 1992, and now he’s trying to hide from his abysmal record on environmental issues and his 8% lifetime LCV score. Still, Ken Calvert made his partisan allegiances clear when he sided with extremists on the “Default on America” plan which threatened to force a national recession if Republicans didn’t get their way on gutting environmental protections.
Over the years, Calvert has taken nearly half a million dollars in campaign contributions from the oil and gas industry, and continues to side with dirty energy special interests over Californians. California has seen 43 new clean energy project announcements since the Inflation Reduction Act passed with these projects bringing more than $11 billion in economic investments, but Ken Calvert opposed the clean energy tax credits at the heart of this economic boom and voted three times to repeal them.
