House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is hardly seen as an advocate for climate change policy, but he’s been more open to addressing the issue than many others in the GOP.

POLITICO’s Kelsey Tamborrino and Josh Siegel discuss what’s in store. Plus, a new study concludes that human-driven climate change contributed to drought in the western United States.
