In Nebraska’s 2nd congressional district, LCV Action Fund-endorsed Tony Vargas is running against Republican Rep. Don Bacon. As a former earth sciences teacher, Vargas understands that we have a moral obligation to confront the climate crisis – which is why he supports building a new clean energy economy that will create new jobs in Nebraska and cut harmful climate pollution. In the state legislature, Vargas also worked to incentivize energy efficiency and invest in clean school buses and electric vehicles. Bacon – who’s earned an abysmal lifetime score of 17% in LCV’s National Environmental Scorecard – has repeatedly sided with big polluters. Earlier this year, he voted against the Inflation Reduction Act, even though it would boost the state’s clean energy economy and lower energy bills.
