Over the last year, it has become clear that many of the Republicans crying about the #GreenNewDeal... have never actually read it!— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) February 26, 2020

It's highly amusing to me that "Green New Deal" is still being brought up as it was brought to the Senate for a vote on the 25th of March 2019. Yes I do believe there is in fact climate change, and yes I do think some of it is man made. However, if any of these people truly thought the world would end in 12 years or some other apocalyptic scenario then why didn't a single Democrat vote for her plan? 43 Democrats voted "present" 53 Republicans AND 4 Democrats voted "No." This piece of legislation was poorly constructed and economically insane.
