The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

Hey Bernie! Trump almost invented single payer in his rage tweet about insurance companies the other day. Maybe you could convince him he did invent it. We could even call it Trumpcare if it makes him happy.
