U.S. Representative-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is demanding that the U.S. commit to shifting 100% of its energy consumption to renewable energy in ten years as part of a “Green New Deal” she is demanding party leaders support.
Politico reported Thursday that Ocasio-Cortez, the “democratic socialist” from New York’s 14th congressional district, is demanding that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi back her demand for 100% renewables as a price for support in the Democratic Party’s leadership struggle.
Incoming liberals, led by Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, are demanding Pelosi go beyond her promise to revive a select committee on global warming; they want her and the rest of the Democratic Caucus to back an ambitious plan to transition the economy to 100 percent renewable energy in a little more than a decade.
But the party’s chairmen-in-waiting are pushing back on the idea that even a new select committee would be necessary, arguing that the existing Energy and Commerce, Natural Resources, Transportation and Science committees have the tools they need to address climate change.

Why not. Can’t we just do it? And can’t we, like, just pay for it?

If you think about it, CNN and the whole fakenews gang will have something to cover for the next two years.
Why wait 10 yrs....make it happen now!

She’s going to run a hose from her mouth to a giant turbine, the hot air will provide free energy for all for decades.
I demand dates with all of the LA Lakers Girls.
In 10 years there ought to be enough socialists to keep the furnaces going full time.
Her own party fights both solar and wind.
It will be amusing to see what kind of “accident” the democrats decide she will die from.
This gal is nutz. And as such, she should replace Pelousy as Madame Speaker.
That way she could ramrod her green energy baloney even faster than 10 years.
Sure just demand a miracle and it will happen. She is even dumber than I thought. And I thought she was pretty dumb....
Why wait 10 yrs....make it happen now!

That’s impossible. Make it 18 months in order to stand up the necessary federal enforcement agencies and time to hire the hundreds of thousands of federal employees to oversee/regulate.
‘demands’?
Really
Is she going to stomp her foot and hold her breath?!
we do know one thing. We will have to pass it to read it.
Airhead...
In 10 years I demand all socialists and liberals in america be rounded up and shipped of to other socialist countries and never be let back in under peanlty of death for them and those who let them back in.
