AOC, other Dems reintroduce trillion-dollar Green New Deal that would end fossil fuels
Fox News
Democratic lawmakers including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., reintroduced the Green New Deal, sweeping legislation that would dramatically slash fossil fuel production.
"When we first introduced the Green New Deal, we were told that our vision for the future was too aspirational," Ocasio-Cortez said. "Four years later, we see core tenets of the Green New Deal reflected in the Inflation Reduction Act — the largest ever federal investment in fighting climate change, with a focus on creating good, green jobs." Thomas Catenacci is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
"But there is still much, much more to do to make environmental justice the center of U.S. climate policy," she continued. "Today’s reintroduction marks the beginning of that process — of strengthening and broadening our coalition, and of laying the policy groundwork for the next fight."
