CEI warns lawmakers that a 'Green New Deal' would risk a humanitarian crisis

A prominent libertarian think tank is warning Congress that a real humanitarian crisis, in the U.S. and abroad, would follow if lawmakers move forward with proposals like the progressive-backed "Green New Deal" that would restrict access to fossil fuels and thus raise the cost of living.

The Competitive Enterprise Institute on Tuesday released its wish list of recommendations for the new 116th Congress, calling on the leadership in the House and Senate to apply a “do no harm” principle before moving forward with climate legislation.

“Policy makers heeding the time-honored healer’s maxim, ‘First, do no harm,’ should reject policies to tax and regulate away mankind’s access to affordable energy,” the group said in its message to Capitol Hill.
