Reach net-zero emissions by 2050 and invest in clean energy and transit

Ansari supports reaching 100% net zero by 2050 and establishing programs to mitigate extreme heat. She calls for a 100% clean energy grid, weatherizing homes and buildings, and federal investment in high-speed rail and public transit across the country and in cities, with the aim of making travel less dependent on cars and planes.

Context: The passage does not define how net zero would be measured or specify the programs, funding, or timeline for the proposed investments.
