There is such excitement about the slate of Democratic Socialists that are in this year's election, I thought I would look to see their positions on the drought that is threatening our way of life across the country.
Here is what I found ON THEIR WEBSITES!
• Melat Kiros – Congressional candidate for Colorado’s 1st District. Website does not mention the drought even as her state is a Colorado River state.
• Chris Rabb – Congressional candidate for Pennsylvania’s 3rd District. On his website he acknowledges that there is a climate crisis. There is no plan or action steps to do anything about the drought impacting our food costs and sustaining our ability to grow our food.
• Claire Valdez – Congressional candidate for New York’s 7th District. Claire has an extensive policy piece on her website related to climate. The drought in the Midwest and Western states is never mentioned.
• Darializa Avila Chevalier – Congressional candidate for New York’s 13th District. There is no mention of the drought conditions on her website.
• Oliver Larkin – Congressional candidate for Florida’s 23rd District. Has a section on the impacts of climate and mentions water in local context. He says nothing about the drought and our water supply.
• Angie Nixon – U.S. Senate candidate from Florida. Her site says there is a climate crisis. It never mentions the drought. It does not speak about the water issue at all.
I am not against or for these candidates, I am sure many are a better choice than the republican opponent.
WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE. If you cannot have any plan or action steps on the drought and get away from the team handbook, you are just as bad as the crap we have in office now. Before you yell at me that okay wise guy what is your plan. Read the book.
