Ranking Member Graves’ Statement on Biden’s Climate Plan
Jul 14, 2020
Press Release
“Joe Biden has fallen into the trap set by the left to use ‘climate change’ as the justification for completely restructuring the American economy in hope of ushering in a Soviet-style socialist state.
“Instead of unleashing American entrepreneurs and lowering the economic burden on American families, his approach relies on increased taxes and more expensive energy, housing, and transportation, which will inflict disproportionate harm on the poor, minorities, and the working class — people who can least afford increased economic burdens in a post-COVID world. The government should be helping families weather the COVID storm, not making things worse.
“Don’t be fooled by the rhetoric, look at the facts contained in the plan — if you care about our country or the environment, this plan should scare you. If you want America to be more reliant on China, Russia and child labor in Africa, then this plan is for you.”
