Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez took credit Wednesday for President Biden’s newly unveiled $2 trillion set of environmental policies, which include eliminating coal, oil and natural gas as electricity sources by 2035.
“It’s almost as if we helped shape the platform,” Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) wrote in a tweet, followed by a winking face emoji.
The tweet was in response to NBC News reporter Geoff Bennett, who noted the similarities between the Biden’s executive orders and Democratic socialist AOC’s “Green New Deal” proposal Wednesday.
