Entire North Carolina GOP Senate Field: Climate Change Is Not Fact

Fittingly, all four Republican candidates in the North Carolina Senate race were asked on Earth Day if they believed climate change is a proven fact. And all four candidates said "no." 

The question was asked during a GOP primary debate on Tuesday night. The candidates, House Speaker Thom Tillis, Rev. Mark Harris, Dr. Greg Brannon, and nursing practitioner Heather Grant, in response to the question, said "no."

GOP politicians on the state-level are doing everything in their power to make sure all North Carolinians are as ignorant as the candidates their party runs for office:

Hard to believe all of the gains made over the past 30 years are being undone is such a short time. I hate that our state is becoming an object lesson in what happens when right-wing zealots take over the reins of power.
