Senator Gardner and his friends Mitch McConnell and the fossil fuel industry realize the grassroots movement to address climate change jeopardizes their hold on power. That's why they are threatened by bold climate policies like Senator Markey and Representative Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal that calls for the urgent action scientists tell us is needed to address climate change.
But while climate champs are putting forward bold ideas, Cory, Mitch, and many of their fellow Republican senators not only have no real plan, they’re trying to sabotage a Green New Deal!
Here’s a quick recap of what’s been happening:
Cory Gardner and Mitch McConnell are trying to play cynical political games by introducing his own phony version of the Green New Deal for a vote. But don’t let their act fool you: Mitch is hoping his vote will stop the momentum around a Green New Deal and Cory Gardner is helping him do it!
