Green Chamber of Commerce backs Clinton in its 1st endorsement

摘要

The U.S. Green Chamber of Commerce today waded into the race for the White House, backing Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton with its first-ever presidential endorsement. In its announcement, the sustainable business group also criticized Republican nominee Donald Trump, pointing to his proposals to roll back the Clean Power Plan, eliminate U.S. EPA, and expand oil and gas extraction on public lands. "The stakes were just getting too high — Mr. Trump's words, actions and proposed policies are not in alignment with our mission or vision at the chamber and he would put our business members, associates, and partners at great risk," chamber CEO and co-founder Michelle Thatcher said in a statement.
