- __derek__ 4y agoEven if the administration believes that they will ultimately speed up these projects, some of the extra rules are pretty clearly social policy: - Requiring companies to provide child-care benefits - Boosting applicants that commit to "environmental justice" - Encouraging hiring of economically disadvantaged individuals But of course it's all negotiable: > She said that the department will take a holistic approach and negotiate terms of the agreement flexibly with individual companies as it applies the criteria stated in the application materials.
- mullen 4y ago- Requiring companies to provide child-care benefits Oh no, Communism! Or allowing parents to stay in the workforce without stressing about child care. The other items are clearly just politics and the Republicans are trying to score points. They could provide their own solutions but that means they would have such things a thought.
