Today, @JoeBiden released a new plan to tackle the climate crisis & our current economic crisis.
No doubt: the #GreenNewDeal movement made this possible, but there’s more to do. The urgency & scale of these crises demand we keep pushing.
Statement & 
on what's in the plan: https://twitter.com/StefFeldman/status/1283056818621763590 …pic.twitter.com/g6ziPEL5v7
This is part of a 4-part vision to #BuildBackBetter from the coronavirus crisis, which has exacerbated the existing crises in society.
Today's plan has 2 parts:
1. To invest in 21st century sustainable infrastructure
2. To advance justice & equity while we do so
Sound familiar?
Biden goes big, fast on clean energy investments: shifting from $1.7 trillion over 10 yrs, to $2 trillion in 4 yrs.
He commits to 
% clean electricity by 2035, historic investments in sustainable public housing, public transit & EVs, & more.

We previously gave Biden a 15% on Environmental Justice on our #GreenNewDeal scorecard b/c he lacked details.
Now he's filled in gaps, commiting to 40% of all investments going to frontline communities, establishing a new division in the DOJ, & more:https://joebiden.com/environmental-justice/ …
Before the #GreenNewDeal, @TheDemocrats tip-toed around the climate crisis, buying into the GOP lie that we had to choose between good jobs & our environment.
Now, everyone knows that acting on climate change is the biggest jobs & economic opportunity in history.
We did that.
This plan isn't perfect, & there are still gaps and places to push, but it's a major step forward, & parts are more ambitious than what @BernieSanders ran on in 2016, or @JayInslee championed in 2020.
We'll have our work cut out for us in making this action a day 1 priority.
What we’ve shown is that movements can change the terrain of what's possible & the common sense of society. But millions are without jobs. Storms are battering our coasts right now. The summer is getting hot. Folks can’t breathe. Roll up your sleeves, & let’s keep it moving.
If you want to keep changing the terrain of what's possible with us until we win a #GreenNewDeal, join us:

It's extraordinarily dumb that we're all told to "keep fighting"... There's such a ridiculously disparate allocation of resources that we actually only need like 50 really wealthy households to just stop being delusionally selfish... Just the wealthiest household per state. Fin.
It's not like they don't personally contribute to both sides of the aisle to ensure favoritism. Require that they give the lump sum of those contributions to the government--since it's public record that they've been gaming the elections for decades, it seems appropriate.
Look, pigs are flying outside my window!!!
