His pick to lead the Interior Department, Deb Haaland, has raised red flags among conservatives due to her hardline stance on so-called climate change.<\/p>\n<p>Sen. Steve Daines (R-Mont.) has spoken out on Haaland\u2019s nomination. In a recent statement, the Republican lawmaker noted her radical climate policies threaten rural Americans\u2019 way of life. Specifically, Daines slammed Haaland\u2019s opposition to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.keystonexl.com\/\">Keystone KL Pipeline<\/a> and her push to dismantle the fossil fuel industry.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JoeBiden?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@JoeBiden<\/a> is this your idea of unity?

We need an Interior Secretary who has the guts to take on fossil fuel CEOs whose greed is destroying the planet. We need an Interior Secretary who will protect our environment.
