Biden to Announce $600M in Climate Investments During California Trip
The investments will be funded by Biden's climate and infrastructure bills and will include a $575 million project to fight rising sea levels, storm surges and tidal hurricanes, said the official, who did not wish to be named.
It will also include a $67 million investment for California to modernize its electric grid to reduce the impact of extreme weather events such as wildfires.
Biden signed a $430 billion bill last August that was touted as the biggest climate package in U.S. history.
The president's trip to California will also see him raise campaign cash from tech and climate donors as he races to raise over a billion dollars for his reelection fight.
