2:27Now PlayingAOC blasted senators who have been trying to block the Green New Deal, pointing to infrastructure damage in New York City caused by Tropical Storm Elsa.
“I’m so glad the filibuster is here to fix this oh wait,” AOC tweeted while sharing a video of cars floating on a flooded expressway.
Many on social media say that NYC’s unpreparedness to handle the major flooding shows how it is not ready to deal with the effects of the climate emergency.
As hurricanes, fires and major storms become more frequent and intense, AOC and other progressive Democrats are pushing the Green New Deal to combat the issues, although the bill’s future is uncertain.
