WFB: Freshman Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D., Va.) said she does not support the Green New Deal “overall,” during a Tuesday evening town hall in her district.
Spanberger said that plan, proposed by fellow freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.), has a “bold compilation of ideas meant to address global climate change,” but is not specific enough in how it aims to solve the problems it identifies, the Washington Post reports.
The ideas promoted by the deal’s framers include replacing or upgrading every building America with green energy alternatives, building “high-speed rail at a scale where air travel stops becoming necessary,” and providing economic security to people “unwilling to work,” according to an FAQ released and then deleted by Ocasio-Cortez’s office.
Spanberger is one of 15 Democrats in the House of Representatives who did not vote for Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) for House speaker. She narrowly won her district in 2018, running on a centrist platform. read more
It’s a climate bill that stops climate.
You just don’t get it here, do ya?
Doesn’t support, but doesn’t oppose.
A denial of supporting something that isn’t really a denial of supporting it.
Anything and everything left open as she sees fit at the time according to her current purpose and the way the wind is blowing at the time.
Leftists are good at this.
(So are a lot of Republicans as well.)
Then what are you doing in the Democrat party?
You caucus with all the other loons and help to give them power.
I heard Spanberger interviewed on The John Fredericks Radio show here in VA this morning. She stated that. “Globul Warming is a very very serious threat for us to keep working on”, so she has that going for her.
And this scrunt represents ME!………..FOOK!
