MITCHELL: "And more recently about the Green New Deal, you were saying — I think you were joking. Tell me what you were saying —“
HIRONO: "Someone asked me about generally trying to get rid of air travel. I said, 'Well, that’s going to make it hard for Hawaii.' But what the Green New Deal stands for is a recognition that climate change is happening, not sticking our head in the sand. So what’s really crazy is Trump and all his minions and his ilk who think that global warming and climate change is not happening and they’d rather just stick their heads in the sand, they offer absolutely zero in terms of what they would propose. So all they can do is mock and attack and I think that is a crazy position because they are denying the science behind climate change."
