Congress has already approved hundreds of billions for “Green New Deal” projects, but Sen. Markey and Rep. Ocasio-Cortez want even more.
Their reintroduction of the “Green New Deal” is full of outrageously expensive programs. It calls for replacing all fossil fuel and nuclear power with solar energy which would require 18.7 billion solar panels and a land mass equal to the combined size of New York and Vermont.
Many toxic chemicals are used to produce solar panels and every year 681,000 birds are killed by wind turbines.
Rep. Ocasio-Cortez was named Porker of the Year in 2019 for introducing the “Green New Deal” in the first place and was also named in November 2021 for pushing President Biden to cancel student loan debt.
Sen. Markey was named CAGW’s August 2021 Porker of the Month proposing a taxpayer-funded Civilian Climate Corps that would hire millions of people and cost billions of dollars.
Their new resolution has nothing to with protecting the environment. It is instead about a complete takeover of the U.S. economy and the end of capitalism, which makes Sen. Markey and Rep. Ocasio-Cortez easy choices for this month’s Porker.
