Sometimes, reality is stranger than fiction, and the GOP's latest move is a perfect example.
In a weird turn of events, Republicans in Congress recently spent $40,000 to change the color of the official Congressional pin from green to, well… anything but green.
Why? They believe the green pin, originally chosen by Democrats, symbolized support for environmental and climate initiatives.
This entire saga is so ridiculous, but it just goes to show what we’re up against. Instead of making real progress towards reducing our climate emissions and addressing the urgent climate crisis we’re facing, the GOP is focused on the color of a Congressional pin.
SEEC Vice Chair Rep. Sean Casten humorously remarked on Twitter, “Big congrats to them on their first tangible accomplishment of the 118th Congress.”
