Bloomberg keeps millions behind Green wall

Despite a red wave sweeping across America last November, a green wall is descending over part of the country.
As President Trump took the oath of office last week, his administration renewed its commitment to rejecting the Paris Climate Agreement, the 2015 legally binding international treaty on climate change. As Trump made good on his campaign promise, a little-known environmental coalition called the U.S. Climate Alliance doubled down on its pledge to uphold the very accords Trump ran and won against. And they are denying the results of the election by taking millions of Americans with them.
The U.S. Climate Alliance is a group of Governors formed as a reaction to Trump’s initial withdrawal from the Paris Agreement in 2017. Its goal was to defy federal policy and adhere to the accord’s emissions reduction targets. Beneath its surface lies a clear driver: Michael Bloomberg. The billionaire environmentalist and former New York City mayor has provided significant financial backing to ensure that the Alliance’s green policies remain intact. This is not grassroots advocacy; it is special interest money dictating how millions of working families must live.
It is the exact agenda voters rejected.
