Harris in Michigan

During the town hall, Harris said she supports the Green New Deal, which is a proposal from Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocascio-Cortez that calls for sweeping environmental reforms. Harris called climate change a crisis and said leadership in D.C. is not helping move the country forward.

“The clock is ticking on this issue and we have supposed leaders in Washington D.C. who are spewing science fiction instead of science fact,” Harris said. “There needs to be a great sense of urgency and we need top level leadership to get it done.”
