Representatives Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, Chellie Pingree and Sydney Kamlager-Dove announce a new caucus aimed at limiting the impact of fast fashion.

Representative Sydney Kamlager-Dove, from the United States, was one of those who advocated for more women to be included in the debate on climate change, since there is little participation of them today. She also said that the political response to the environmental crisis must focus on marginalized groups, such as poor women and girls.

Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove (D-Calif.) said firefighter pay increase from the infrastructure law has been an important hiring and retention tool for the Forest Service, but warned the agency still faces vacancies in fire-related positions and general staffing gaps in non-fire positions.

Republican U.S. Rep. Matt Rosendale wants to outlaw IVF, and two Los Angeles members of Congress aren’t having it.

For the first time ever, the United States government will have a caucus focused solely on fashion.
