Ocasio-Cortez
Ocasio-Cortez
on Friday called for
the immediate
all-out mobilization
of American industry
to combat climate change,
saying the:
"direct existential threat"
it poses to the world
is similar to the danger
posed by Nazi Germany
during World War II.
"So, when we talk
about existential threats
-- the last time
we had a really major
existential threat
to this country
was around
World War II,"
Ocasio-Cortez, 29,
told supporters
at a town hall
in College Point,
a working-class
neighborhood
in Queens, New York.
"And so
we've been here before,
and we have a blueprint
of doing this before."
