So much good news on what this admin has accomplished and what they're planning. Big plans too!! Audience is cheering now. . . but he set up carbon reduction standards with Chinese president Xi (pronunced "gee," who knew?) and announced that he's planning on repealing oit company tax breaks, i.e. the oil depletion allowance, which he also called for appealing at the first debate .



A Gina MacCarthy to head EPA ... worked for BP and she's been held up for months in the Senate . . .



"The senate should confirm her without any more obstruction or delay," thunderous applause!



And much much more . . .
