The US Senate on Monday voted in bipartisan fashion to advance a fossil fuel industry-backed permitting reform bill that would weaken the Clean Water Act and other key environmental protections to make it easier for the federal government to streamline energy projects—including climate-wrecking gas pipelines.
It’s actually a little less complicated than that.
Every state has a state-level Democrat party, and in Minnesota it just happens to be called something different.
All the things that actually made it different from any other state Democrat party are far in the past, and functionally it’s just like any other state Democrat party.
