Pelosi flouts Trump at climate conference on Paris agreement: 'We are still in'

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., on Monday said the U.S. is "still in" the Paris Climate Agreement in remarks during an international climate conference, a position that cuts against President Trump’s vow to exit the accord.

“By coming here we want to say to everyone we are still in, the United States is still in,” she said while speaking in Madrid, according to AFP. She was referring to herself and the rest of a congressional delegation that attended the United Nations Climate Change Conference COP 25.

Her comments came shortly after the U.S. filed paperwork to officially remove itself from the Paris agreement, a move that won't fully take effect until a year has passed. That agreement, Trump claimed, could harm the U.S. economy.

President Pelosi has spoken. Why don’t Republicans think like Democrats? McConnell could go to the conference, tell everyone that he has the same authority as Pelosi, which is none, but he is her equal as leader of one house of Congress, and the US will be out of the Paris accords in one year, because Donald Trump is US President and it’s his decision.
