Dem Senator Complains About Voting on His Own Legislation

Sen. Ed Markey (D., Mass.) railed against Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's (R., Ky.) decision to call the Green New Deal resolution to a vote, legislation he co-sponsored along with freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.).

"Don’t let Mitch McConnell fool you: this is nothing but an attempt to sabotage the movement we are building. He wants to silence your voice so Republicans don’t have to explain why they are climate change deniers. McConnell wants this to be the end, this is just the beginning," Markey wrote Tuesday.

He sounds worried that this is going to get more exposed to the general public. 
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

But we have 12 years left on this planet? Why the delay?

I can 'see' the commercial spots now.....

McConnell wants names/material for the upcoming 2020 campaigns...go on record for voting for all that nonsense.
