White House spokeswoman has no good answer to where the "Green jobs" are for people Biden threw outs of work
During Monday’s White House press conference, Fox News’s Peter Doocy asked the White House Press Secretary, Jen Psaki, where are the Biden administration’s so-called “green jobs” for unemployed union and construction workers.
On his first day in office, President Joe Biden signed an executive order that revoked a key permit for the Keystone XL Pipeline, which was designed to more efficiently move oil from Canada to the United States. The Biden administration’s proposed green jobs plan has promised to create more than 10 million “well-paying jobs in the United States,” though no immediate legislation or executive order has been proposed to create such jobs.
In a tense exchange, Doocy asked the press secretary where these “green jobs” are and when unemployed Keystone XL Pipeline workers can expect to apply for them.
“When is it that the Biden administration is going to let the thousands of fossil fuel industry workers, whether it’s pipeline workers or construction workers, who are either out of work or soon to be out of work because of a Biden [executive order], when it is and where it is that they can go for their green jobs?” Doocey asked.
Psaki addressed Biden’s climate proposal and said that the plan may be rolled out in the upcoming “weeks or months.”

“But there are people living paycheck to paycheck,” Doocy said. “There are people out of jobs once the Keystone pipeline stopped construction. It’s been 12 days since Gina McCarthy and John Kerry were here. It’s been 19 days since that [executive order], so what do those people who need money now — when do they get their green jobs?”
Doocy’s question comes on the heels of a Sunday interview with a top union leader who slammed Biden’s job-killing order.

The answer to Doocy's question is that the Biden administration has no idea when those alleged green jobs will appear. None. They have no plans on the table or they would be bragging about them. One reason they have none is that the green programs are not cost-effective or people would already be building them without the need for government programs.
