Not only is Craft a corrupt swamp-monster with a financial stake in pollution, she’s a fair-weather Climate Denier. She previously claimed that she believes in “both sides of the science” when it comes to the climate. But in an attempt to salvage her nomination before the US Senate, she claimed to believe the science and called for action.
Oh and, not that it matters to the Trump team, but she’s wildly unqualified. UN Ambassadors have to negotiate and represent us every day with dozens of countries and heads of state. But Craft has virtually no diplomatic experience. She had a symbolic post under President George W. Bush and 18 months as US Ambassador to Canada.
And yet, as much of the country swelters under a record-setting heat wave, Congress will return next week and consider Craft’s nomination for a THIRD time. We’ve already seen what Rex Tillerson, the former Exxon CEO, did when given a chance to lead the state department. Or what Andrew Wheeler, a formal coal lobbyist, has done with leadership at the EPA
We deserve a UN Ambassador who will support solutions to climate change, believes in the importance of humanitarian aid, and will be at least physically present to make important decisions on the world stage.
Sign the petition: Demand the Senate reject Kelly Knight Craft’s nomination.
Thanks,
Drew and the 198 Trump Nominees to stop crew
