Summary
President Biden became the first sitting U.S. president to visit the Amazon rainforest, emphasizing the global urgency of combating climate change.
During his historic visit, he called protecting the environment “a fight for humanity, citing achievements such as rejoining the Paris Agreement, boosting climate financing to $11 billion annually, and advancing green energy through the Inflation Reduction Act
He announced new conservation efforts, including $50 million for the Amazon Fund, and declared Nov. 17 as International Conservation Day.
Biden urged leaders to prioritize both environmental protection and economic growth, leaving a climate-focused legacy amid concerns over President-elect Trump’s rollback plans.
They didn’t vote against the party. They voted against what the party ran on but never had any intention of ever doing.
Why do you feel they didn’t have any intention of doing what they ran on?
Why don’t you?
Because they’ve passed legislation that hasn’t been blocked in Congress like the student loan forgiveness. Which went on to be blocked by conservative lawsuits. But not after helping some people.
This makes it pretty clear than republicans are the reason democrats can’t get more progressive policies passed. Even to those not paying attention.
Student loan forgiveness was an executive order. It was never voted on in congress. It would have stood a better chance of surviving the courts if it had. But it wouldn’t have got past the Senate because Manchinema was there doing the party’s work.
USA Today: Senate votes to repeal Biden student loan forgiveness; White House plans a veto
That was a vote to repeal the executive order.
That’s irrelevant. We are talking about whether the Democratic Party intended to do what they said they would do.
They said they would forgive student loans. They were blocked by republicans.
You are acting like democrats are to blame for republicans actions.
The deciding votes were from Democratic senators.
