The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association is actively lobbying against the “Green New Deal” ahead of other industry groups, many of which are taking a wait-and-see approach to the progressive wishlist, because of the risk that it could entail a crackdown on cows.
The cattlemen see the Green New Deal as the latest battle in a veritable war on cows that goes back 15 years, featuring skirmishes at the United Nations and in the 2008 climate debate in Washington, blaming the livestock industry for exacerbating the effects of climate change.
“What we have seen time and time again — and the Green New Deal is just another iteration of that — is accusations with no facts, no figures, no credible science behind it, and we have finally gotten to the point where we’re done with the stupidity,” Colin Woodall, the cattlemen’s senior vice president of government affairs, told John in an interview.
