What does the infrastructure bill mean for Arizona? Will it drive climate action and a clean energy economy in Arizona? Can we learn from Minnesota's efforts to implement a statewide plan for a clean energy economy?

Join us for a robust panel discussion hosted by Arizona Forward, a nonprofit that brings together business and civic leaders to improve the environmental sustainability and the economic vitality of our state and local regions. Moderated by Jon Ford (Vitalyst Health Foundation), Chair, Arizona Forward.
