Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) issued a challenge Wednesday to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) to debate her publicly on the economic impact of the Green New Deal.
In a series of tweets Rep. Greene insisted it “would be informative for the American People”, noting that Americans “deserve to hear the two sides with pro’s and cons”.
In her statement, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene wrote:
AOC I’d like to challenge you to a debate on the Green New Deal economic policy. Since you sponsored the Green New Deal and have a degree in Economics, I’m sure you are more than qualified.
I just have a degree in Business Admin and have owned a construction company for 20 years. A debate between AOC and I on the Green New Deal economic policy would be informative for the American People. They deserve to hear the two sides with pro’s and cons.
AOC you can choose one moderator and I choose a moderator. Then we can negotiate a major news network to host the debate. Let’s do this for The People. What do you say? Continued Below
