Watch: Sen. Mike Lee Says Babies Are ‘Real Solution' to Climate Change, AOC Responds to ‘Elitist' Claim

The fight over climate change in Congress produced two viral moments on Tuesday. First Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, ridiculed the Green New Deal in part by making the argument that “babies are the real solution to climate change. Later, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., responded to claims that the Green New Deal is “elitist” by raising issues of childhood asthma and the effects from lead poisoning in Flint water.
