Obama team kicks off climate change push

President Obama’s allies at Organizing for Action kicked off their campaign for climate change legislation with a video attacking “climate deniers” such as Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., and House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, for being on the opposite side of the issue.

“In 2011, there were 240 members of Congress who voted to say that climate change is a hoax,” OFA executive director Jon Carson reminded liberal activists in an email this morning. Most of them are still around today, and they’re getting away with it — some of them are actually proud of it. They think the whole debate is pretty funny. If we want to make progress on climate change, we need everyone in Congress on board for a solution.”
