One question to sara Nelson.
Does she even knows anything about the Green new deal?
Green new deal means an end to air travel.
Is she ok with it?
Is she ok with de industrialization?
I don't personally think so.
She's great Sara Nelson for President!
This Leader is a powerhouse and a hero of common people.
Unions should be illegal. We should change the system to one with share per employee like Google.
I wouldn't take a sky waitress's word for much. She and her flight crew ilk are perfectly happy destroying lives on the ground around airports and destruction of the planet as a whole for profit. @stopcltnoise and thousands of others on Twitter is sure pissed about it.
She is Damn Good at her job! That's what a leader looks like.
Right-wing hacks: Trade unionists are greedy communists who worship Stalin.
Some jobs are less than others. They should be pain in accordance to the skill set needed. Wake up!
The Green New Deal is a joke. It wasn't created as climate policy, it was a plan to move our economy toward a socialist one.
Let's also talk the obvious, this is a flight attendant union, they aren't the ones who'll have to actual re/build our infrastructure.
That's why the trade unions came out against it.
Lastly, wasn't AOC knocking air travel and pushing to replace a lot of it with trains? hilarious!
I've seen various videos of Ms. Nelson speaking. She absolutely knows her stuff, articulates it clearly, and makes connections that many do not immediately make, but are vital to the goal of strong worker protections.
When she's ready to hang up her wings, I hope she seriously considers a political career. She is needed.
Maybe a Sanders administration would place her somewhere in the Department of Labor where she'd be effective.
I wonder what comes out the business end of a turbofan.
How about we just force the airports to pay their own taxes instead of tax payers or just change it from a "private" to a "public" service and let everyone fly for free.
Time to increase capital gain taxes!
Coporations are abysmal Time for a change,
Flight Attendants are very lucky to have such leadership in Sara Nelson! Capitalism has failed working people, and government, both parties, has backed Wall Street at the expense of workers. Go Bernie, AOC, and "The Green New Deal"!
Very competent president of the union. Very articulate without the normal b.s. Leaders commonly use. I do agree with comments to this interview that point out, saving jobs and creating them is a secondary concern.
none of you comprehend climate change.
our entire way of life is inherently unsustainable. "jobs" and "standard of living" Do NOT belong in this conversation, if we truly want to survive.
Address The DELUSION Of Dualism.
They are all phonies if they don't shout to the hills that capitalism is the crisis!!!!
Greenwashing New Deal. Come on TRNN when are you going to realise that capitalism (socialism for the rich) can not come up with the answers to reign itself it?
This was a wonderful interview. I feel hopeful. Perhaps this union representative should be in President Sanders cabinet. 😉 it would be very hard for that union to find another leader to replace her but the interviewer shows that there are loads of wonderful strong women ready to go so – yep. It's a plan.
Informed. Frank and Furious in her correct time. We need more people of her caliber making decisions, now!
Sara Nelson for president !
Thank you Sara Nelson, this is really important!
The SJWs and enviromentalists should form a party for themselves, so us people in the real left can have something to vote for.
I am tired of having my important issues constantly pushed aside by non-leftwing clowns.
I think they should rename the green new deal to "The Green leap forward".
This plan is just as insane, overambitious and detached from reality as Mao's the great leap forward.
When are we going to see her in congress. She helped stop the government shutdown and speaks so eloquently.
This is great coverage. I had no idea the Flight Attendant's union was so cool. Awesome!
Edit: Wow Sarah Nelson is really inspiring!
First small step; don't fly. Jet aircraft are the worst offenders. Try to avoid travel unless necessary.
How do you explain people living at the equator and the poles? Such idiots!
Turkeys voting for Christmas?
Comparing retaining in the green new deal with health insurance for coal miners is a very poor attempt at gaslighting. Saying that people simply don't believe the government can anything right. Tragic.
Human induced climate change is a lie.
Weather manipulation is a fact (look up Dr David Keith from Harvard University).
