A New Senate Climate Caucus Will Unite Republicans And Democrats Blahblahblahblahblahblahblahblah
EDIT
A bipartisan duo of Sens. Mike Braun of Indiana and Chris Coons of Delaware are organizing the new caucus, which is still in the planning stages and will be formally unveiled in the coming weeks, according to the senators' staffs.
The caucus would be the first bipartisan group on the Senate side dedicated to climate change discussions. Democratic senators currently have a special climate committee and Republicans have formed a conservation caucus, but neither include members across the aisle.
EDIT
The formation of the caucus will be Braun's first big foray into climate policy. The freshman senator chairs the Senate Environment and Public Works subcommittee on clean air and nuclear safety, and he has co-sponsored bills to boost advanced nuclear energy development and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from industrial manufacturing.
"I'm not afraid to talk about climate change. I'm not afraid to talk about the science," Braun said. "I mean, we're obviously pumping more CO2 into the air and there is a thing called the greenhouse effect." But he also criticized some of the Democratic plans to combat climate change, including the Green New Deal, that he said would severely hamper the economy.
