Murray: Reneging on global goals to combat climate change puts Washington state families’ health and safety at risk and hurts the American economy
Backing out of international climate agreement subverts U.S. credibility and influence on the world stage
(Washington, D.C.) – Today, Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) issued the following statement in response to President Trump’s announcement that he will withdraw the United States from the international Paris Climate Agreement:
“It is truly a sad commentary that when faced with two choices-- to either uphold the Paris climate deal to combat perhaps the most significant challenge of our time, or, to abdicate all responsibility and walk away-- President Trump chose the latter. This is especially cruel as Washington state is already grappling with the harsh effects of climate change, from ocean acidification and shrinking glaciers on Mt. Rainier, to more intense droughts and crop damage, and bigger, more devastating wildfires. Our children, and our children’s children, will remember the moment when the President of the United States of America chose the short-sighted political payoff despite scientific fact, overwhelming global support, long-term financial stability, and the will of millions of families he vowed to represent. To say I’m disappointed with President Trump’s decision is an understatement.”
Read Senator Murray and Senate Democrats’ May 24 letter to President Trump discouraging him from withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement and a May 4 Senate resolution expressing support for the global accord.
Well,let me tell ya,getting patty out of office rates right up there;)
Reminds me of an old song I like.
Dusty Springfield - The Windmills Of Your Mind (WDR Germany 1969)
Patty who ?
Shocking!
Fresh out of “Giveadamn”
Wow—Who saw that coming? /s
And I denounce sh!thead politicians whose apparent sole purpose is to destroy America, Patty!
That's all you need to know about her.
Moron in tennis shoes...
It’s a good thing that she has intelligent staff. She, herself, couldn’t put that kind of statement together.
The most significant challenge of our time is militant Islam. Number two is socialism. Murray embraces both. With gusto.
AS far as I can tell the agreement was for the US to TAX their People and Businesses and give the Money to the Rest of the World as Welfare. So we just need to replace the Money and all is well right??. Therefore I propose we Tax Entertainment, say $20 per Movie Ticket, $50 for a concert, and of course Major Taxes on All Cable, Satellite, Over the Air Visual Broadcast Mediums. After seeing Arnold Schwarzenegger and Al Gore and Leonardo DiCaprio I bet they would Jump at the Idea of Saving the Plant.
“... the President of the United States of America chose the short-sighted political payoff...”
What political payoff? This moron didn’t seem to notice that President Trump got his ass globally kicked by the NWO crowd by keeping his promise to put America first.
Team Trump = MAGA!
Osama Mama should have started wearing a burka, would have been easier on the eyes.
Not tired of winning yet.

Major Taxes on all elected officials that stay in office for more than two years.
Murray who? Another ignorant Democrat that knows little about anything. She should take a walk in the mountains and get lost.
Why does the party of anal sex, abortion and contraception suddenly take such an interest (or even CARE) about “our children’s children” ???? Seriously Patty, you folks are in much greater danger from the Cascadia Subduction Zone than bogus “global warming”!!!!
no one cares what she thinks
Murray gave us that a-hole Judge that blocked the first Travel ban and got the whole thing started. She and W made a deal.
