EXCERPT:
BLOOMBERG: "Now, a lot of elected officials have embraced the idea of a green new deal and that’s great, it’s become fashionable to do so, but I think it’s time as a party that we started putting some meat on the bone and laying out exactly how a green new deal should — what it should include. And I believe that that plan should be bold and ambitious and most importantly achievable. I’m a little bit tired of listening to things that are pie in the sky that we never are going to pass, never going to afford. I think it’s just disingenuous to promote those things. You’ve got to do something that’s practical. We need a transition as quickly as possible to clean energy and we need to be — that has to be a part of the 2020 party platform for the Democratic Party, period.”
