Description

Introduced in 2018 as an imperative to be enacted with 12 years [coincidentally [?] to coordinate with the successful conclusion of the Paris Accord], the Green New Deal, as proposed by its sponsors, Representative Ocasio-Cortez [D-NY-24], and Senator Markey [D-MA], is neither green, nor new, nor a deal. It is an unachievable wish balloon.

I respectfully disagree. Crocodile is attempting to parse the subject of the debate, the Green New Deal, into the definitions of the three separate words, when those words, combined, end up equating to issues beyond the environment, let alone his separate definitions. My third round will address a piece of that action.

Excellent use of the resolution to press for a win! That's why you should always be clear about the resolution.
