“Then why didn’t you vote ‘YES’ for the Green New Deal when it came to the Senate Floor?” Crenshaw replied. “Maybe because it’s not a plan. Or a good deal. Or even ‘Green.’ It’s a 3rd grade science project that isn’t based in science or engineering.”

Because, similar to Medicare for All, they don’t want the public to know the details
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.
