Obama on the Climate Bill
President Obama’s weekly address regarding the passage of the climate bill through the house.
The fact that the democrats keep pushing this as “jobs bill” is great (with the hope that they are well-paying, equitable jobs) and I know it helps make the bill more politically viable, but I think it is sad that the focus isn’t actually what the bill is really about: climate change. Of course, climate change is not a challenge that the American people are ready to face full on yet, so framing the issue in terms of jobs will be helpful in that sense.
