WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) today issued the following statement condemning the signing of the Paris Climate Agreement today at the U.N. Headquarters:
“This Paris Climate Agreement is the latest in the Obama administration’s string of attacks on the livelihoods of American families, increasing costs by trillions and causing everyday household bills to skyrocket,” Sen. Cruz said. “Public policy should follow science, evidence, and data, but instead we have a White House full of global warming alarmists imposing partisan dogma that hurts working men and women. We have liberal politicians who want government power over the economy, the energy sector, and every aspect of our lives. Rather than turning attention and resources to real national security threats, such as radical Islamic terrorists who want to kill us, the Obama Administration is instead focused on the SUV parked in your driveway.”
