Sen. Kamala Harris and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez disclosed a proposed bill Monday that seeks to protect low-income communities from the dangers posed by climate change. Titled the Climate Equity Act, the plan would establish an independent Office of Climate and Environmental Justice Accountability that would score all new environmental regulations for their impact on low-income communities. Harris, who is seeking the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, announced the legislation Monday, two days before she is scheduled to appear at the party’s second primary debate this year, in Detroit. In a statement, Harris added that “climate change is an existential threat

Excellent. Get China and India to buy into your fantasies first and abide by your plan and then, and only then, will I hear your ideas on which freedoms you’re planning on yanking away from Americans.

Not Climate CHANGE.........climate JUSTICE.
This is about taking dollars out of your pocket and giving it to the poor pitiful poor.

So, she's saying that the multi-million dollar mansions in the Malibu Colony area (the view you see if you tune into Two and a Half Men), should be dropping in value by a significant amount.
And, that there needs to be disclosures on any future sale of that area, and many other areas around the country, particularly along the Coast.

Whenever you see an act titled "Something-or-Other" Justice, you can be assured it has nothing to do with justice.

If there was ever any doubt, teaming up with AOC proves that Kamala Harris doesn’t have sufficient sense (or even political instincts) to be President.

How can these two losers talk about climate justice when they suck all the air out of any room they enter?

Justice is the engagement of our judicial system.
We have a justice system. And equity under the law.
Otherwise those two dimwits can pound sand.

Good Lord! Sounds much like Atlas Shrugged and its Equalization of Opportunity Bill, complete with the Bureau of Economic Planning and National Resources, headed up by Mr Wesley Mouch.

Yep #11 I thought "Atlas" was fiction. Now we have congresspersons (is that POLITICALLY correct?) and presidential candidates suggesting that climate change is racially oriented? It's going to snow tomorrow to pi$$ off the black people? AAaaahhh. I get it. Snow is white.

Excellent idea, Kamala. Keep pushing this idea. I hope the Dems nominate you. Good luck convincing normal Americans that these ideas that you got from AOC are winners.

OMG Just when you have lost all hope in Democrats, they continue to shock you with their far far left nuttyness. Who pray tell are they pandering to this time?

Great. Between this and reparations,, minorities get money from other people's pockets. There will be even more trash and rats on the streets.

Don't kid yourselves. Climate justice merely means more free money to pay a utility bill or perhaps no bill at all.
