Elizabeth Warren cranks out another proposal to make the Green New Deal a reality

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) is back with a whole lot of bullet points.

On Tuesday, Warren revealed that she'll be unboxing all of her job-creating, American industry-protecting plans under the umbrella term of "economic patriotism." The first leg of that economic policy is Warren's "Green Manufacturing Plan," which, yes, is divvied up into another three points that pin economic revitalization to the Green New Deal.

Warren coined "economic patriotism" in a Tuesday morning blog post, and as Bloomberg pointed out, it had some similarities to President Trump's rhetoric on the American economy. The blog post starts with Warren slamming so-called "American" companies such as Levi's and Dixon Ticonderoga for moving manufacturing oversees, which looks a bit like Trump's spat with Harley Davidson last year. She also calls for "actively managing" the U.S. dollar's valuation, which aligns her closer to Trump's strong dollar criticism "than with past Democratic administrations," The Washington Post says.

On the other hand, Warren's Green Manufacturing Plan wouldn't be caught anywhere near Trump's White House. In another Tuesday blog post, Warren pledged to "invest $2 trillion over the next ten years in green research, manufacturing, and exporting" to build green jobs and achieve the Green New Deal. That will happen in three parts, Warren said: funding clean energy research and development, creating government demand for American-made clean energy products, and exporting those products around the world.
