WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND), issued the following statement on Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) suggesting President Joe Biden declare a climate emergency:

“Chuck Schumer wanting President Biden to declare a climate emergency is an early admission Democrats’ climate proposals are too extreme to be passed by Congress. This rhetoric might play well in far-left media outlets, but the Biden Administration has already launched a full-fledged attack on American energy producers that will disproportionately harm low-income workers and American families. A climate national emergency declaration would be a policy nightmare and a political disaster the Biden Administration would quickly regret.”
