Submission Text
I recommend we scrap this proposed railway and adopt the New Green Deal immediately. The continued use of fossil fuels is costing the taxpayer more in dealing with wildfires, flooding, and other climate change problems caused by the fossil fuel industry. Republicans are protecting this one industry and it's oligarchs at the expense of the world's health and the taxpayer. Do not continue to deny climate change like with the Covid. We all know what is going on with the fires the floods, the encroaching sea, the Covid deaths, none of the misinformation is working, only hurting the GOP as evidenced by the 2020 election.
