Massive Coalition Calls on President Obama to Nominate Rep. Raúl Grijalva as Interior Secretary
Grijalva Would Provide "Renewed Emphasis and Urgency"
On Climate Change, Preservation of Water, Lands

Raúl Grijalva (D-Ariz.) as the next interior secretary when that position opens. Grijalva is currently ranking member of the House Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests and Public Lands, and a leading Democrat on the House Natural Resources Committee.
The selection of the next interior secretary is “an important moment to place a renewed emphasis and urgency on some of the most critical issues of our age, including climate change, the protection of endangered species and preservation of water and wild lands,â€
