Climate Change Dispatch  by Sean Moran on Sep 30, 2020

Former Vice President Joe Biden said during the presidential debate on Tuesday night that, under his administration, the country will not build any more coal or oil plants in America.

“Nobody’s going to build another coal-fired plant in America. No one’s going to build another oil-fired power plant in America. They’re going to move to renewable energy,” Biden said.

To support coal and power plant workers and their communities, President Biden will make an unprecedented investment building upon the vision put forward in the Obama-Biden Administration’s Power+ Plan. And, he’ll establish a Task Force on Coal and Power Plant Communities, as the Obama-Biden Administration did for Detroit when the auto industry was in turmoil. For example, the Task Force will help these communities access federal investments and leverage private sector investments to help create high-paying union jobs based upon the unique assets of each community, partner with unions and community colleges to create training opportunities for these new jobs, repair infrastructure, keep public employees like firefighters and teachers on the payroll, and keep local hospitals open.

It will be a miracle if Biden and the Dims hanging on to his coattails will survive this election and still be holding office in Pa.

NOBODY votes for a candidate that is going to put them out of work,and make most of them homeless.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

Well, he might be right about the oil power plant.

Bet there has not been one built in 50 years.

Even so, I reckon that PA remains either too close to call, or perhaps even tilting very slightly towards Biden right now.

A lot of older forever-democrat voters there who simply cannot comprehend how the party they have so long believed in could possibly turn against the values they hold... they will never understand that TODAY, a vote for a democrat is a vote for a communist.
