BILLINGS – A group of military veterans touring the country stopped in downtown Billings Monday evening to speak about the dangers of climate change and its threat to national security.
The group is encouraging congress to pass energy legislation that cuts carbon pollution and puts America in control of its energy future.

“What we want to do is create clean American jobs and take control over energy in the future and we need to see strong climate change legislation go through the senate,” said Alex Cornell Du Houx, military veteran.

The vets will continue their 21-state bus tour Tuesday in Miles City.
