We have seen a string of Green New Deal look-alikes at the local level. After New York City Mayor Bill DeBlasio called for a city-wide Green New Deal, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo signed into law his state’s own Green New Deal. On top of that eco-companies in New Mexico successfully convinced the governor to sign New Mexico’s Green New Deal, and activists are continuing to train their fire on more cities and states. With Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s legislation stuck in neutral at the federal level, eco-extremists hope to get their agenda passed state by state and city by city, regardless…

Former Colorado Governor and current 2020 Democratic presidential candidate John Hickenlooper had some choice words for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s “Green New Deal” during last night’s Democratic debate. Fox News reports that Hickenlooper “warned during Tuesday night’s Democratic primary debate that ‘you might as well FedEx the election to Donald Trump’ if the party adopts…the so-called Green New Deal.” “The Green New Deal, making sure every American is guaranteed a government job if they want — that is a disaster at the ballot box,” Hickenlooper explained. This is partially right. Hickenlooper is correct in saying that the “Green New Deal” is a “disaster,” but he didn’t…

WASHINGTON, DC – American households can expect tens of thousands of dollars in higher costs for energy, housing, transportation, and shipping if the Green New Deal is implemented, according to a new study released today by Power the Future and the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI). The joint study, co-authored by Power the Future Founder and Executive Director Daniel Turner and CEI President and CEO Kent Lassman, finds each household in five model states – Alaska, Florida, New Hampshire, New Mexico, and Pennsylvania – will be on the hook for more than $70,000 in increased costs for electricity, upgrading vehicles and…

If you’re a supporter of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, you should be fuming right now. AOC has spent the past few months promoting her radical “Green New Deal” to undermine the US economy, destroy countless energy jobs, pay those unwilling to work, institute a government takeover of healthcare, and instill socialism upon America. She’s made herself the face of the eco-left. But it seems establishment leftists have different plans, and they’re insulting AOC in the process. Yesterday, House Democrats announced that they would unveil their own eco-plan to rival the “Green New Deal” this year. It’s a blatant attempt by the establishment to take…

The eco-left knows that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s federal “Green New Deal” has become a national laughingstock that is unlikely to ever become law. But they’re not giving up – instead, the eco-left is working tirelessly to pass mini-Green New Deals under the radar at the state level. First, they passed New Mexico’s very own-Green New Deal. Then, they tried (and failed) to pass a carbon tax in Oregon. Unfortunately, they have now succeeded in New York. On Thursday, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo signed into law New York’s “version of a Green New Deal.” “Ours is the real deal,” said Cuomo, who was…

When Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez rolled out her “Green New Deal” earlier this year, she neglected to include a price tag. How many trillions would we need to spend and raise in taxes to fund a government takeover of healthcare, a forced transition to “green” energy, the potential elimination of air travel, and free cash for those unwilling to work? She refused to say. This was deliberate. AOC’s refusal to say how much her plan would cost was a feature, not a bug, and it turns out it’s based on a laughable economic theory that even Obama-economists are slamming as “a recipe…

While Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s “Green New Deal” has become a national laughingstock, some corners of the political world are standing by the fanatical plan. In fact, recent polling from Business Insider found that a plurality of left-wing primary voters prefer a Green New Deal-like plan that would force “net-zero carbon emissions by 2030 by any means necessary.” Yes, they want an extreme plan that would force the eco-left’s will on the country by “any means necessary.” And there are growing reports that the far left plans to use this to their advantage to oust longtime incumbents, just as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez did…

Even a cursory read of the “Green New Deal” would lead you to the conclusion that the “plan” was never really about protecting the climate at all. Why would the so-called environmental plan include a government takeover of healthcare or provisions to pay people unwilling to work? What does a guaranteed job have to do with cutting carbon emissions? And why did proponents of the bill say nothing about carbon-free nuclear energy or expanding American exports of lower-carbon fuels like natural gas? Why did the plan call for “social, economic, racial, regional and gender-based justice and equality and cooperative and…
