Senate’s new budget boss is also a climate hawk
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, a soundbite machine and intra-party agitator, brings his own flavor of Democratic politics to Sen. Bernie Sanders’ old committee.
The failure of Congress to adequately respond to climate change, he maintains, has demonstrated “a dramatic lack of integrity, almost entirely due to the malign political influence of the fossil fuel industry operating semi-covertly through dark money channels and front groups.”
Perhaps it’s no surprise, then, that Whitehouse is relishing the ability to use a chair’s microphone to spread his often-mellifluous message. The senator has a way with words when it comes to battling with Republicans.
“They’re relying on a new magic budget word. That word is ‘woke,’” Whitehouse said at a press conference earlier this month. “Call everything ‘woke’ and then try to cut its funding seems to be the strategy … The woke screen is a smoke screen.”
It was a cutting enough remark to earn an “oooh” of approval from Schumer.
