'Scientific consensus' is where they lost me...science doesn't work like that, they don't just all agree to one thing, nor do all agree on climate change.

This new deal also abolishes all air travel and requires every building and every home in America to meet Green New Deal standards. Who is paying for that and impossible to be done in 3 years.

You people in the press are stuck on stupid. Is she the only women elected? I am s Democrat and I am tired of hearing about this Congressperson? You even gave her initials as a name. Please. You attacked the Somali born woman and the lady of Iranian descent will catch hell. IJS

AOC and EdMarkey riding on the green new deal. That isnt a total laughing stock....

A little unclear how you can write that this part of the resolution 'does not explicitly exclude some major forms of low-emissions electricity — mainly, nuclear energy...'

Led by a fool?

DOA

I can’t believe the Democrats are siding with the socialist against Trump even at his worst he’s 100 times better than the socialist!

Yawn.

Jeez! Wouldn't it make a hell of a lot more sense to invest in carbon capturing and storage technology? It's still a long way from reality but it has to be more attainable than this nonsense AOC is peddling!

She had to have gotten her economics degree the same way HorizontalHarris got her start in politics. There’s just no other way of explaining that level of ignorance.

Here's the cost.

TMW you realize that some people think 'presidential candidate' means president 😆

Green Deal is totally unrealistic and destructive...scientists say it is IMPOSSIBLE to achieve 100% without fossil fuel....economists say it will Bankrupt U.S.

What a joke! 😂😂😂😂

Gas bag!

A 20 something who can’t manage to pay her own living expenses, sure has good ideas for spending other people’s money.

Utter nonsense. According to the EIA, in 2017 62% of power generation was from fossil fuels. There is no viable path to get to 100% renewables in 10 yrs. Ms. Cortez and her colleagues have no clue.

Girl needs some lexipro...

Commie.

simple question. How do we pay for it? I know we don't ask that anymore but that doesn't mean it isn't important

All the deep state can do to oppose POTUS I wonder has Cortex been properly initiated into congress with a honey trap? Who is controlling her and when will she announce that she is suddenly a millionaire

Way to much attention being paid to the squeaky wheel. Flameout seems inevitable

Being backed up on a policy loved by the left by a bunch of democrat candidates means nothing. Quit trying to spin it so it seems like this is an accepted idea

Dear Congresswoman please advise everyone all marginal rates for all income brackets you propose to fund the Green New Deal and please do not limit your response to only incomes over $10mm. Thank you.

Republicans who don't like this plan only have themselves to blame. Trump is not a good president and when the Blue Wave brings more Democrats...just blame Trump for the backlash.

are any of them POTUS with VETO power?
