Democratic Sen. Al Franken said Thursday that it’s short-sighted for the Trump administration to promote fossil fuel jobs at the expense of the East Coast’s ability to avoid being under water.

“What about the jobs we are going to have dealing with climate dislocation and refugees? What about the jobs we’re going to have when the East Coast is flooded? What about those jobs?” Franken asked of David Bernhardt, President Trump’s nominee for Interior deputy secretary, at an energy committee confirmation hearing.
