Is the Green New Deal a Choice Between the Environment and Good Paying Jobs?

"Clean energy economy runs right through the labor movement," union leader says. "It shouldn't be a choice between the environment and good paying jobs", he adds. LZ: I might think that you are speaking in a protectionist manner, i might think that your union members represent old guard sectors that wouldineia be hurt by these developments under the green new deal. Persuade me that's not the case,. Well, we're protecting jobs that exist and will go away, but we're also looking to make sure the jobs that emerge are high quality, family sustaining."
