So our opposing party fighting the evil trump are working on some great legislation.
The 'Green New Deal,' an ambitious package of environmental ideas proposed Thursday by Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York and Democratic Sen. Ed Markey of Massachusetts, is a House resolution just 14 pages in length that suggests a framework for future policy.
Included in its wish-list are a transition to 100 per cent electric cars and replacing all airplane travel with high-speed trains.
'That would be pretty hard for Hawaii,' Sen. Mazie Hirono, from the Aloha State, said Thursday.
The Obamacare law was 2,300 pages long when Congress passed it in 2010. Thursday's effort, although already backed by 60 House Democrats, would be non-binding if it passes.

The article goes on to say
Markey and Ocasio-Cortez wrote that they 'are calling for a full transition off fossil fuels and zero greenhouse gases.'
They acknowledge the difficulty with achieving a 'zero emissions' society in just 10 years, 'because we aren’t sure that we’ll be able to fully get rid of farting cows and airplanes that fast.'
All cows emit methane in their flatulence; 'getting rid of farting cows' suggests geting rid of all beef.
