Only from this administration would anything this stupid be considered:
The Mexican leader pitched the initiative, Planting Life, during President Biden’s virtual climate summit at the White House on Thursday and said it could help stem the surge of immigrants to the US border.
It involves planting 1 billion fruit and timber trees, and Lopez Obrador proposed the US grant six-month work visas that lead to citizenship to workers who participate in the program.
“You, President Biden, can finance the Planting Life program in Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador,” Lopez Obrador said Thursday.
I highlighted 'you', because that is who will be paying for it, not Joe, you and me. But it gets better:
“The proposal is that we extend this program to southeastern Mexico and Central America, to plant 3 billion more trees and create 1.2 million jobs.”
This is how Democrats "create jobs"... it's always you and me paying for the jobs and not the private sector that really does do that.
President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador will discuss a plan to offer citizenship as part of a tree-planting proposal he wants the US to help finance when he meets with Vice President Kamala Harris next month, a Mexican official said.
So not only will we be paying another country to plant their trees, we will offer citizenship for the people we pay to do it. Makes perfect sense in our new idiocracy.
