As national politics grow more polarized, state legislatures are quietly emerging as some of the most effective arenas for advancing pragmatic energy and environmental policy. This conversation brings together bipartisan state leaders Stephanie Barnard (WA), Alex Valdez (CO), and Matt Shaheen (TX), to explore where real progress is happening—across sustainability, climate, and infrastructure—and how states are forging workable paths forward. From nuclear and grid buildout to land, water, and resource management, together they will highlight opportunities for bipartisan wins and examine how state-level leadership can move faster and more collaboratively than Washington.
