My top 3 points for why Dems should vote for Lucia Simonelli: there is daylight between her and Bob Harvie on 3 core issues:
- supports a full moratorium on data center construction until we know about the effects on communities better, and then supports strict regulations
Bob Harvie is not as strict on data centers
- supports healthcare as a human right and supports single payer Medicare for all plan
Bob Harvie believes single payer would “hurt the party”
- opposes unconditional aid to Israel. Any aid, if there is any, should be contingent upon following international law
Bob Harvie supports unconditional aid to Israel
*edit*
And a 4th!
Simonelli was a policy advisor for Sheldon Whitehouse and so she understands the workings of the chamber and by extension, is something of an expert on climate change legislation
