Political activist Grover Norquist is not convinced that Democrats’ opposition to fossil fuels is about the environment.

“It’s completely political because if you look at it, it’s not just that they don’t like fossil fuels, meaning gasoline,” he said. “They also don’t like nuclear power. Well, nuclear power has no carbon in it.”
