Thanks, Senator Whitehouse!
Thanks, Senator Whitehouse!
A few weeks ago, Mayor Rogero was happy to greet
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse
of Rhode Island in her office. He was in Knoxville to speak at the Outdoor Writers Association of America Conference, and he wanted to hear about Knoxville's efforts on carbon emissions reduction and climate resilience. He also visited Oak Ridge National Laboratory. In the C-Span clip below, speaking on the Senate floor, Sen. Whitehouse talks about those visits. Thanks for the kind words, Senator!
