Feinsten Confronted by School Children

Brainwashed children demand she sign the Green New Deal and she argues with them and even scolds them.

Senator Dianne Feinstein is drawing criticism for snapping at a group of schoolchildren who demanded that she vote 'yes' on the Green New Deal - but her supporters defend her for engaging with them on the subject.

A group of about 20 middle and high school students organized by Sunrise Movement confronted the California Democrat in her San Francisco offices on Friday.

The children pleaded with the senator to sign the Green New Deal resolution championed by freshman congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, telling Feinstein that they had heard from 'scientists' that the earth only has 12 years before cataclysm.

'You know what's interesting about this group? I've been doing this for 30 years. I know what I'm doing,' Feinstein replied.

She really did not do this right. She could have taken any of the thousands of obvious problems with that bill, described the problem and asked the children what they thought should be done to manage that problem. This "muh authority" bullshit just makes crybabies.

...

she probably didn't even read the bill. it's really not that long. i will post it here since it's probably only 3 posts

1ST SESSION H. RES. ____

Recognizing the duty of the Federal Government to create a Green New
Deal.

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Ms. OCASIO-CORTEZ submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on __
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the duty of the Federal Government to create
a Green New Deal.

Whereas the October 2018 report entitled ‘‘Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5oC’’ by the intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the November 2018 Fourth National Climate Assessment report found that—

human activity is the dominant cause of observed climate change over the past century;
a changing climate is causing sea levels to rise and an increase in wildfires, severe storms, droughts, and other extreme weather events that threaten human life, healthy communities, and critical infrastructure
global warming at or above 2 degrees Celsius beyond preindustrialized levels will cause—
mass migration from the regions most affected by climate change;
more than $500,000,000,000 in lost annual economic output in the United States by the year
2100;
wildfires that, by 2050, will annually burn at least twice as much forest area in the western
United States than was typically burned by wildfires in the years preceding 2019;
a loss of more than 99 percent of all coral reefs on Earth;
more than 350,000,000 more people to be exposed globally to deadly heat stress by 2050; and
a risk of damage to $1,000,000,000,000 of public infrastructure and coastal real estate in the
United States; and
global temperatures must be kept below 1.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrialized levels to avoid the most severe impacts of a changing climate, which will require—
global reductions in greenhouse gas emissions from human sources of 40 to 60 percent from
2010 levels by 2030; and
net-zero emissions by 2050;

Whereas, because the United States has historically been responsible for a disproportionate amount of greenhouse gas emissions, having emitted 20 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions through 2014, and has a high technological capacity, the United States must take a leading role in reducing emissions through economic transformation;

Whereas the United States is currently experiencing several related crises, with—

life expectancy declining while basic needs, such as clean air, clean water, healthy food, and adequate health care, housing, transportation, and education, are inaccessible to a significant portion of the United States population;
a 4-decade trend of economic stagnation, deindustrialization, and antilabor policies that has led
to—

hourly wages overall stagnating since the 1970s despite increased worker productivity;
the third-worst level of socioeconomic mobility in the developed world before the Great Recession
the erosion of the earning and bargaining power of workers in the United States; and
inadequate resources for public sector workers to confront the challenges of climate change
at local, State, and Federal levels; and
the greatest income inequality since the 1920s, with—
the top 1 percent of earners accruing 91percent of gains in the first few years of economic
recovery after the Great Recession;
a large racial wealth divide amounting to a difference of 20 times more wealth between the average White family and the average Black family; and
a gender earnings gap that results in women earning approximately 80 percent as much
as men, at the median;

Whereas climate change, pollution, and environmental destruction have exacerbated systemic racial, regional, social, environmental, and economic injustices (referred to in this preamble as ‘‘systemic injustices’’) by disproportionately affecting indigenous communities, communities of color, migrant communities, deindustrialized communities, depopulated rural communities, the poor, low-income workers, women, the elderly, the unhoused, people with disabilities, and youth (referred to in this preamble as ‘‘frontline and vulnerable communities’’);

RESOLUTION

Recognizing the duty of the Federal Government to create a Green New
Deal.

Whereas the October 2018 report entitled ``Special Report on Global Warming of
1.5 \o\C'' by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the
November 2018 Fourth National Climate Assessment report found that–

(1) human activity is the dominant cause of observed climate change
over the past century;

(2) a changing climate is causing sea levels to rise and an increase in
wildfires, severe storms, droughts, and other extreme weather events that
threaten human life, healthy communities, and critical infrastructure;

(3) global warming at or above 2 degrees Celsius beyond
preindustrialized levels will cause–

G (A) mass migration from the regions most affected by climate
change;

G (B) more than $500,000,000,000 in lost annual economic output in
the United States by the year 2100;

G (C) wildfires that, by 2050, will annually burn at least twice as
much forest area in the western United States than was typically burned by
wildfires in the years preceding 2019;

G (D) a loss of more than 99 percent of all coral reefs on Earth;

G (E) more than 350,000,000 more people to be exposed globally to
deadly heat stress by 2050; and

G (F) a risk of damage to $1,000,000,000,000 of public
infrastructure and coastal real estate in the United States; and

(4) global temperatures must be kept below 1.5 degrees Celsius above
preindustrialized levels to avoid the most severe impacts of a changing
climate, which will require–

G (A) global reductions in greenhouse gas emissions from human
sources of 40 to 60 percent from 2010 levels by 2030; and

G (B) net-zero global emissions by 2050;

Whereas, because the United States has historically been responsible for a
disproportionate amount of greenhouse gas emissions, having emitted 20
percent of global greenhouse gas emissions through 2014, and has a high
technological capacity, the United States must take a leading role in
reducing emissions through economic transformation;
Whereas the United States is currently experiencing several related crises,
with–

(1) life expectancy declining while basic needs, such as clean air,
clean water, healthy food, and adequate health care, housing,
transportation, and education, are inaccessible to a significant portion of
the United States population;

(2) a 4-decade trend of wage stagnation, deindustrialization, and
antilabor policies that has led to–

G (A) hourly wages overall stagnating since the 1970s despite
increased worker productivity;

G (B) the third-worst level of socioeconomic mobility in the
developed world before the Great Recession;

G (C) the erosion of the earning and bargaining power of workers in
the United States; and

G (D) inadequate resources for public sector workers to confront the
challenges of climate change at local, State, and Federal levels; and

(3) the greatest income inequality since the 1920s, with–

G (A) the top 1 percent of earners accruing 91 percent of gains in
the first few years of economic recovery after the Great Recession;

G (B) a large racial wealth divide amounting to a difference of 20
times more wealth between the average white family and the average black
family; and

G (C) a gender earnings gap that results in women earning
approximately 80 percent as much as men, at the median;

Whereas climate change, pollution, and environmental destruction have
exacerbated systemic racial, regional, social, environmental, and
economic injustices (referred to in this preamble as ``systemic
injustices'') by disproportionately affecting indigenous peoples,
communities of color, migrant communities, deindustrialized communities,
depopulated rural communities, the poor, low-income workers, women, the
elderly, the unhoused, people with disabilities, and youth (referred to
in this preamble as ``frontline and vulnerable communities'');
Whereas, climate change constitutes a direct threat to the national security of
the United States–

(1) by impacting the economic, environmental, and social stability of
countries and communities around the world; and

(2) by acting as a threat multiplier;

Whereas the Federal Government-led mobilizations during World War II and the New
Deal created the greatest middle class that the United States has ever
seen, but many members of frontline and vulnerable communities were
excluded from many of the economic and societal benefits of those
mobilizations; and
Whereas the House of Representatives recognizes that a new national, social,
industrial, and economic mobilization on a scale not seen since World
War II and the New Deal era is a historic opportunity–

(1) to create millions of good, high-wage jobs in the United States;

(2) to provide unprecedented levels of prosperity and economic security
for all people of the United States; and

(3) to counteract systemic injustices: Now, therefore, be it

Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that–
(1) it is the duty of the Federal Government to create a
Green New Deal–
(A) to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions
through a fair and just transition for all communities
and workers;
(B) to create millions of good, high-wage jobs and
ensure prosperity and economic security for all people
of the United States;
(C) to invest in the infrastructure and industry of
the United States to sustainably meet the challenges of
the 21st century;
(D) to secure for all people of the United States
for generations to come–
(i) clean air and water;
(ii) climate and community resiliency;
(iii) healthy food;
(iv) access to nature; and
(v) a sustainable environment; and
(E) to promote justice and equity by stopping
current, preventing future, and repairing historic
oppression of indigenous peoples, communities of color,
migrant communities, deindustrialized communities,
depopulated rural communities, the poor, low-income
workers, women, the elderly, the unhoused, people with
disabilities, and youth (referred to in this resolution
as ``frontline and vulnerable communities'');

The headline should be special needs school children if they support the horsefaced spicjew's bill.

The fuck has this got to do with the environment. Wish these faggots would stop trying to shoe-horn race into everything

(2) the goals described in subparagraphs (A) through (E) of
paragraph (1) (referred to in this resolution as the ``Green
New Deal goals'') should be accomplished through a 10-year
national mobilization (referred to in this resolution as the
``Green New Deal mobilization'') that will require the
following goals and projects–
(A) building resiliency against climate change-
related disasters, such as extreme weather, including
by leveraging funding and providing investments for
community-defined projects and strategies;
(B) repairing and upgrading the infrastructure in
the United States, including–
(i) by eliminating pollution and greenhouse
gas emissions as much as technologically
feasible;
(ii) by guaranteeing universal access to
clean water;
(iii) by reducing the risks posed by
climate impacts; and
(iv) by ensuring that any infrastructure
bill considered by Congress addresses climate
change;
(C) meeting 100 percent of the power demand in the
United States through clean, renewable, and zero-
emission energy sources, including–
(i) by dramatically expanding and upgrading
renewable power sources; and
(ii) by deploying new capacity;
(D) building or upgrading to energy-efficient,
distributed, and ``smart'' power grids, and ensuring
affordable access to electricity;
(E) upgrading all existing buildings in the United
States and building new buildings to achieve maximum
energy efficiency, water efficiency, safety,
affordability, comfort, and durability, including
through electrification;
(F) spurring massive growth in clean manufacturing
in the United States and removing pollution and
greenhouse gas emissions from manufacturing and
industry as much as is technologically feasible,
including by expanding renewable energy manufacturing
and investing in existing manufacturing and industry;
(G) working collaboratively with farmers and
ranchers in the United States to remove pollution and
greenhouse gas emissions from the agricultural sector
as much as is technologically feasible, including–
(i) by supporting family farming;
(ii) by investing in sustainable farming
and land use practices that increase soil
health; and
(iii) by building a more sustainable food
system that ensures universal access to healthy
food;
(H) overhauling transportation systems in the
United States to remove pollution and greenhouse gas
emissions from the transportation sector as much as is
technologically feasible, including through investment
in–
(i) zero-emission vehicle infrastructure
and manufacturing;
(ii) clean, affordable, and accessible
public transit; and
(iii) high-speed rail;
(I) mitigating and managing the long-term adverse
health, economic, and other effects of pollution and
climate change, including by providing funding for
community-defined projects and strategies;
(J) removing greenhouse gases from the atmosphere
and reducing pollution by restoring natural ecosystems
through proven low-tech solutions that increase soil
carbon storage, such as land preservation and
afforestation;
(K) restoring and protecting threatened,
endangered, and fragile ecosystems through locally
appropriate and science-based projects that enhance
biodiversity and support climate resiliency;
