Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez ramps up criticism of Joe Biden's reported “middle ground” climate change policy approach.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., has ramped up her criticism of former Vice President Joe Biden's reported “middle ground” climate change policy approach as part of his 2020 presidential campaign.
She attacked what a recent Reuters report characterized as a “middle ground approach” that Biden is working on as an alternative to Ocasio-Cortez’s proposed Green New Deal. Although she never mentioned him by name, Ocasio-Cortez' reference to"politicians who refused to act back then" appeared aimed at Biden when she spoke about the inaction of Congress following the 1989 history-making testimony of James Hansen, director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies. Biden was in the Senate when Hansen told Senate lawmakers that global warming was real, already happening and posed a serious threat.
We’re not going to solve the climate crisis w/ this lack of leadership. Our kids’ lives are at stake. https://t.co/KvrBmaJd75
