Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont teamed up with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York and Oregon's Rep. Earl Blumenauer on Tuesday to unveil a new resolution that would declare climate change a national emergency

"There is a climate emergency which demands a massive-scale mobilization to halt, reverse, and address its consequences and causes," the bill's authors wrote. While it does not call for specific action, the legislation states in sharp terms that climate change is a human-made problem that threatens the fortunes of millions of Americans and demands immediate political action.

"Here's what the Green New Deal actually saysAll three lawmakers said Tuesday that the declaration was necessary because the issue of climate change, given the scientific consensus around its causes, had moved entirely into the realm of politics. By taking this step, they argued, Congress would signal its willingness to enact significant changes, including taking the first steps toward turning the controversial, and still largely conceptual, Green New Deal into a reality.

Nice

Americans are declaring an emergency for the rest of the globe? Or just for our country? I think there are other countries influencing climate changes...trying to remember the names of those countries 🤔 I look forward to their plan to stop the other 194 countries...😉

We should worry. But what about China and India? It is a world problem. It isn’t only a US emergency.

Actually AOC and SenSanders are the real national emergency with the policies they would push if people with common sense stopped fighting back. Oh, and let's not forget to include the media like .

AOC RepAOC BernieSanders have you climate change dorks ever considered that the rise in CO2 has to do with the fact there are probably 4 billion more people on earth then there should be all breathing out CO2, how are you gonna stop that!!?

You can end planet heating by shutting up the hot air out of Democrats mouths!! :)

Is he that desperate for supporters now?

We sent her to school to be where she is today

IPCC confirms no trends in extreme weather. The slight warming over past 300 yrs is perfectly in keeping with pattern over 10,000 yrs of Holocene. Zero direct evidence to blame CO2. These orgs are all in the pocket of politically motivated funding from politicians. Patrick Moore

Why does the late great cnn continue you attach their wagon to losers, oh my the ratings ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

AOC has already admitted her green new deal does nothing for the climate

Yea think I'll pass on your socialist power grab but thanks, no Democrat votes from me untill they come to their senses. WalkAway

But no teaming up on Immigration Reform

The New Green Scam?

The back door way to Socialism.

2 losers on a loser station....yep, sounds like a winning team.🤣🤣

That’s wise of Sanders to hook his ship up to the most divisive and disliked and marginalized (by her own party) member of Congress who displays utter ignorance day after day. BTW; Climate change is a global issue .. without China on board, they are spinning wheels

Environmental emergencies are the worst kinds. Every tree is a potential toilet.

Not Going to happen the senate will shoot it down immediately

Mental illness is really showing its ugly head.

🤮

Dumb and dumber

Those two talking reminds of this scene!

Climate change the democracts cash cow. Yawn..

Em breve o pólo norte não vai mais existir

AOC will be out next Election

That’ll change everything.

All countries, especially the ones with high emissions should do the same! We owe to our children

Recycled fake news

A match made in socialist hell

ESENT NOW THIS JU ST WHAT IS RONG . WITH HELL KNOW THIS IS WHY THAY ARE NOT GOING TO GET AWAY WITH THIS NOT ON MY WACH O

Oh god help us all.

what the Eisenstein of the Democrats that is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who said this mind numbing dumbest thing ever 🤪🤪🤪 The same AOC who did not know what a waste disposal machine was 🤪🤪🤪🤪

And the POTUS is going to tweet that the US is the only country on the receiving end of natural disasters caused by climate change, and that it is caused by all of the other nations around the world.

The last 3 brain cells of the libs, this should be good, you have a man stuck in the 60 on a bad tab of acid, a fake Mexican who claims she cares more for illegals than citizens, and an outdated representative who is clearly behind the times, what could possibly go wrong? lol

Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio Cortez are national emergencies.

And send troops to the border!

Except that AOC's very own Chief of Staff let it slip that this isn't about Climate Change for her - it is about economic power. It is all about the money in this nation and who controls it. Your own employee spilled the beans Alexandria. He outted you and now we know the truth.

A team of mentally disturbed

So 98% of scientists say there is no climate change. There isn't any data showing any climate change. How is this a national emergency?

Bye Bernie

It is important that is for sure But is that really what you want to spend your time on at this very moment ? Bernie is a no vote for me!

Teem up with Bernie Sanders if you want to Name a Post Offices as that is the Only thing he has Done in All his Years in Senate! If you want to get something Done Bernie Sanders is Not Your Man!

Lol no

Right about the same time that researchers in Norway and Japan are claiming man made impact on climate is fiction.

Two of the biggest losers of the Dem party joining up lmfao.

They better have studies showing statistically significant correlation between climate & crisis. If not they must be slammed 4 lies & removed from their elected positions for continually lying and creating a false reality for the people of the United States.

it's about time 🧐

This is the ultimate power grab to control all aspects of life. What you can do, when, where etc. the UN 2030 Agenda is the same plan on a global scale already with many countries signing up. It’s a form of global governance through regulation to ‘save the planet’

Каким образом эта троица сможет вернуть климат?Бить в бубен?Танцевать вокруг костра?Делать жертвоприношение?Время покажет и расставит все по полкам.В любом случае должен быть результат их деятельности,как показатель благородной миссии спасения человечества.

I think the Democrats want to give Trump the win in 2020 by splitting the party. You cannot complain about Trump and why he won if you split the party and set up for him to win in 2020.. Sanders is an opportunist. he only cares about himself and not the party.

Bwahahahaha!

Note to self: If you want to have any credibility regarding climate change don't team up with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

AOC is a blessing in disguise for Trump,looks like Trump will get 2 terms easily perhaps even a landslide victory.

What a joke this two socialist are🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Such fools

Oh good God.

A day is approaching when Americans wont be able to buy coffee, fruits, meats, and many other commodities due to climate catastrophies in the global south and I fear it won't be until then that they'll actually get what's going on.

Bull shit!

How does this help earth if America is pure and clean and most other countries are dirty. They will provide every citizen and illegal in the country a free respirator.

She is a joke! For real!

Wow.....the Three Stooges reborn!

Prolific with resolutions, anything more drastic in the works ? Trying to derail a functioning Administation. Almost becoming anti -USA!

How about we declare Cortez a national disaster

Life is really amazing. Who would have thought that a bartender from New York would be elected to Congress, team up with an old communist who has lived off taxpayers most of his life and together they are going to save planet Earth. WOW!

Lossers

I love it ! The more insane you people get means the more we win ! TRUMP2020

They should get a job they are qualified for.

Funny thing is that if they get there way and could actually declare it.. imagine all the tax dollars that would flow to many happy hands waiting to receive it....When the money would be ALL spent it would produce 0 results. Meanwhile people keep pouring over our BORDER...…

MiriamLeitaoCom Pública coisa de progressistas norte-americana, lambe bota de traças no Brasil... Esse é o jornalismo da Globo...

Two socialist that want to screw up our country.
