Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden says he believes there will be an opportunity “in the next round” to use his green deal to spur economic growth in America.
During video remarks on Wednesday, the former Vice President responded to a question on what policies he will tout to reach out to younger voters.
Breitbart.com reports:“Well, first of all, this is about, what I’m talking about today is making sure that your generation…doesn’t end up behind the eight-ball.

So, when we fund money, we find money to do that.

One of the ways to make sure these jobs are available, that may get lost or hurt in the meantime, is to provide the kind of jobs that have prevailing wages where people are making $45, 50 an hour plus benefits, by building new infrastructure. We’re going to need new infrastructure going down the road here. And it’s a way to generate economic growth. That’s going to be, I think, the next round we have to be looking at.”
