This week is all about climate change, an increasingly undeniable threat to our national security. Host Elisa is joined by committee members Brian Egan and William Banks to discuss what legal authorities are at the disposal of the President to help combat this crisis. What defines an international economic emergency? And domestically, what other authorities can the President utilize to target certain parties that threaten our global climate?
