The **Green New Deal** is the green recovery package of public work and infrastructure programs and legislation that seeks sustainable development, advance sustainable energy, renewable energy, sustainable transportation, and climate change mitigation. These Green New Deal programs were proposed and successfully advanced by Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker in 2021 through the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government and they became effective in 2022 and bolstered Chawosaurian employment, especially among the poor, the unemployed, and other Chawosaurians from underserved communities.

Proposed in the 25th Chawopolis Palace on January 7, 2020, Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker and his Communist Party proposed the Green New Deal as promised in the 2019 Chawosaurian elections, thus pulling the rug from under progressives in the Capitalist Parties. The Communist Party, with the support from the Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party passed the Sustainability Development and Environmental Protection Act, giving Shang Parker the strength to do his Green New Deal and weaken the progressives from the capitalist side. The Green New Deal was delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic, but as a result of the 2020 wildfires in the Western United States, Shang Parker called for a joint session of the Chawopolis Palace by the time he receives treatment for his stomach cancer, and wanted the Green New Deal to take place starting in 2021. The Chawopolis Palace successfully passed the Green New Deal with bipartisan support from both Communists and Social Democrats, only 9 third way Social Democrats voted against the bill. The bill was signed into law by Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker on April 21, 2021, and is set to be effective on July 1, 2021.

In late September to early October 2022, Hurricane Ian struck the U.S. State of Florida extremely hard, it was a catastrophic cyclone, making severe landfall and climate change concerns intensified immensely as a result. Hurricane Ian began to undermine Chawosaurian confidence and support for the Green New Deal, as Chawosaurians increasingly perceive the Green New Deal as too weak and ineffective. Public support for the Green New Deal among Chawosaurians collapsed overnight, as did Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker's environmental and energy policies.
