The Green New Deal plan from Bernie

These are the supporters of the February proposal that in pj's eyes doesn't exist

Co-sponsors of the Green New Deal:

• Sen. Bernie Sanders tweeted "I am proud to be an original co-sponsor of the Green New Deal proposal. We must address the existential crisis of planetary climate change."
• Sen. Cory Booker likened the GND to fighting Nazis and going to the Moon, reports the Washington Times.
• Sen. Kamala Harris, via C-SPAN: "We have to have goals. It's a resolution that requires us to have goals and think about what we can achieve and put metrics on it."
• Sen. Elizabeth Warren tweeted that she is "excited" to back the GND after initially saying she backed the general "idea" of it.
• Sen. Amy Klobuchar: "I see it as aspirational, I see it as a jump-start. So I would vote yes, but I would also, if it got down to the nitty-gritty of an actual legislation as opposed to, 'Oh, here are some goals we have,' that would be different for me," reports The Hill.
• Sen. Kristin Gillibrand: "It's got this aspirational goal of net zero carbon emissions in ten years," reports Newsweek.

Supporters of the Green New Deal:

• Author and activist Marianne Williamson tweeted: "Yes, we need a Green New Deal, and we also need to address the spiritual rift between humanity and nature. The earth is not ours to dominate, but to cherish."
• Former Housing Secretary Julían Castro tweeted: "We're gonna say no to subsidizing big oil and say yes to passing a Green New Deal."
• Former tech executive Andrew Yang tweeted he was "aligned and on board" with the GND.

Supporters of the spirit of the Green New Deal:

• Former Rep. John Delaney says people will have to pull carbon from the atmosphere and rapidly curb emissions to bypass the worst fates of climate change, per the Guardian. “I also want to solve the climate problem by getting us to net-zero by 2050," Delaney says, explaining that goal would require engaging direct air carbon capture.
• Washington Gov. Jay Inslee: He has praised the Green New Deal for injecting urgency discussion and other aspects, but places more emphasis on the role of the private sector than some backers, writesAxios' Ben Geman.

Good news, David.    I've heard it through the grape vine that Kirsten Gillebrand has a similar plan with a payment mechanism of handing the bill to Mexico.

So I think you have yourself a candidate.

Thanks Tom - keep posting how Democrats support a "Green new Deal" .   They most certainly do.

What they dont support is the bullshit 90 Trillion dollar fairy tale you got from a birther website that was fabricated by birthers.    Here's the fact check again showing Tom is a fundamentally dishonest person

have a great day !

 PJ says--- "So I think you have yourself a candidate." ------- My response is - "do you really THINK?" If you did, you would not have posted all of the hate filled lies concerning President Trump these last 3 1/2 years. 

Pj - those are the supporters of the plan that a few days ago you said didn’t exist. Now that there is an estimate that you find acceptable you finally admit to its existence. 

Hard to take you seriously. 

You dont have to take me seriously...I provided the link to Bernie's actual plan.  And it stands in deep contrast to the unfathomable lies you were peddling a few days ago.

And I guess it brings us back to the topic of the other thread.    Republicans dont pay for their spending as proven by every Republican Adminstration since Reagan gave us voodoo economics..   Democrats do pay for their spending as evidenced by every Democrat Administration since Reagan gave us voodoo economics.

But Tom has a hard time with easily demonstrable facts from the US treasury and an even harder time confessing he only has a problem with deficits when FOX News tells him too.    So he makes up shit.   Its worth noting again.    Tom is a fundamentally dishonest person

What makes Bernie’s unvetted self serving estimate which has been out for about an hour, better than the 90 trillion estimate ?

The first problem is that it is dependent on a fossil fuel tax, but the plan outlaws the fossil fuel companies. 

Hey PJ, where's the CBO analysis that you were demanding about something that you said didn't exist that shows Bernie isn't just pulling numbers out of his ass? 

Wow. There are still people who LOOOOOVE Trump, and decry all the "hate-filled lies" about him. Yes, he's actually a saint and the mostest bestest President in the history of the galaxy, and every single bit of negative press about him is just FAKE NOOZE.

We haven't seen this level of fawning loyalty to an evil, populist con man and huckster since the torchlight parades in Nuremberg. Trump appeals to the dark corners of the human mind, and encourages people to lift up the rocks and take a good look at what's crawling underneath. For Trumpers, that's orgasm-inducing. They're willing to completely overlook his lies and incompetence, as long as they get their hate fix.

Kevin must have been comatose during the last administration.
