2020 presidential candidate and Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren was first mentioned by NPR in 1991, when she was interviewed on All Things Considered for a story about people filing for bankruptcy during the economic recession. At the time, Warren was a professor at the University of Pennsylvania and co-author of one the largest studies ever done on bankruptcy.
"We have to rebuild our infrastructure to deal with climate change that is bearing down upon us. The urgency of the moment on climate change cannot be overstated. It's upon us and we need to make change and make change fast.”
-Elizabeth Warren, from Morning Edition's Election 2020: Opening Arguments series.
