As extreme heat continues to soar, the investments are not only supporting cooling centers to help keep folks safe and healthy, but also capture an abundance of renewable energy from southern Nevada\u2019s 300+ sunny days per year while lowering energy costs for southern Nevada communities.\n\n\u201cAs we all know, communities across the country are dealing with extreme heat \u2013 we just happen to be a little more extreme,\u201d said Congresswoman Lee. \u201cThis solar-powered cooling center is just one example of how we're helping families beat the heat. And because of the federal Solar Power for All program, we\u2019ll soon be seeing more of these projects as southern Nevada leads the nation in efforts to build a clean energy economy.\u201d\n\nThe press conference also comes on the heels of an announcement by Congresswoman Lee and Unimacts Solar Manufacturing of over 200 new jobs in southern Nevada earlier this year, which was also a direct product of investments made by the Inflation Reduction Act.\n\nImage\n\nAbove: Congresswoman Lee meets EPA Administrator Michael Regan\n\nImage\n\nAbove: Congresswoman Lee and Administrator Regan listen to a solar panel demonstration", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T21:24:45Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://susielee.house.gov/media/press-releases/congresswoman-lee-epa-head-tour-solar-powered-cooling-center-southern-nevada"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6861837357282639, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
