Harley Rouda: “A one percent under count of low-income workers in my district means a loss of approximately $160,000 in Federal funding…”

I do not think the Green New Deal is the way to do it, but I do think that we have the capacity, the intellectual, technical capacity to address these issues and do it in a way that not only benefits our country but the whole world.

In fact, in Orange County in my district, we learned that if there is a one percent under count of low-income students, schools could lose over a quarter million dollars in Federal funding.

Earlier this year, we learned the damage that could be done to our communities by just a one percent under count.

We all agree that less CO2 emissions is better for our health and the health of our fellow Americans.
