Fox News
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tried to sabotage the rollout of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal in 2019, according to a new book.
However, Markey went against Pelosi's wishes and the rollout went as planned. The progressives unveiled Green New Deal legislation in February 2019. Pelosi made headlines for downplaying the far-reaching proposal. "It will be one of several or maybe many suggestions that we receive," Pelosi told Politico at the time. "The green dream or whatever they call it, nobody knows what it is, but they're for it right?"More Related News
