Power The Future Statement On Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez “Green New Deal” Resolution

February 7, 2019

In response to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s “Green New Deal” resolution and press conference, Power The Future released the following statement:

“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez believes the world is ending in 12 years, and her only solution is a 14-page document without any specifics or numbers. I don’t agree with Michael Bloomberg often, but he is dead-on when he calls the so-called Green New Deal a ‘pie in the sky’ idea,” said Power The Future Executive Director Daniel Turner.

“When America is finally becoming energy independent, it strikes me as unpatriotically dangerous to propose risking our economic and national security for a politically motivated scheme. Thankfully, this lunacy has zero chance of becoming law, because even if Ocasio-Cortez was able to put a price tag on it, it would bankrupt this nation.”
