Citing a new poll that revealed 81 percent of people overall support the idea of a bold and ambitious ‘Green New Deal,’ Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez celebrated the simple political concept that when you push for policies that are good for a majority of people, a majority of people like it.
“Turns out,” the Democrat from New York declared in a Monday night tweet, “everyday people like it when we fight for everyday people!”
The tweet included a link to a story published by Earther earlier in the day highlighting a poll by the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication and George Mason University showing that more than 8 out of 10 respondents from “across the political spectrum support the progressive plan to combat climate change by rapidly weaning the U.S. off fossil fuels.”
