Well played.

There was no reason to vote for this right now.
The entire point of creating a resolution is to have it voted on.

If AOC did not want vote on it, then do not create a resolution.

Because it wasn’t going to pass anyways. The Green Deal as it stands is very vague and even environmentalists have said its unrealistic at the time. The vote was for the Republicans to use it as an example of AOC running the Dem party. It failed

Because AOC and Democrats didn't expect a vote on it yet, they explicitly said they wanted this to be a nonpartisan dialouge, not a partisan power-move.

The Republicans would simply not hear it, and elected to deny public hearings and expert testimony.

How can you have a "nonpartisan dialoge" with crazed people who insist the world is ending in 12 years, that we have to stop flying planes and eating hamburgers? And they are absolutely intolerant of any view but theirs.



Ain't happening.
