By The FirstFar-left Senator Bernie Sanders called for a ‘Green New Deal’ for America’s public housing this week; claiming the new entitlement program would reduce “energy inefficiency” and fix “government neglect.”
“The Green New Deal for Public Housing addresses our climate and affordable housing crises together in a way that transforms our energy system, rebuilds public housing, and creates hundreds of thousands of good paying jobs in low-income and working-class communities,” posted Sanders on social media.
“It is unacceptable that our nation’s public housing is in a state of chronic disrepair and energy inefficiency after generations of government neglect,” he added.
