Sen. Amy Klobuchar Tuesday outlined an ambitious plan for how she'd spend her first 100 days if elected president of the United States, including a call for a bold infrastructure plan that she says would be her key budget priority.
"There are so many things we can do right away," the Minnesota Democrat and presidential candidate told MSNBC's "Morning Joe." "My idea is that I've got 100 bills that have passed since I've been in the Senate and then a hundred bills we can do in the first 100 days and I truly believe these are things we can do."
CNN has obtained an 18-page list of Klobuchar's goals, showing that on day one, she'd bring the United States back into the International Paris Climate agreement and that she'd work to ensure the United States "maintains global leadership" while addressing the climate crisis.
She also said in the plan that she'll "immediately" suspend efforts by the Trump administration to eliminate Obamacare protections for people with pre-existing conditions and that she wants to allow for the safe importation of prescription drugs from safe nations such as Canada.
On Tuesday, Klobuchar told MSNBC that Congress would not be needed to return the United States to the climate agreement, or to "bring back the clean power rules that have been negotiated for years that the president left on the cutting room floor."
Further, as president, she said she can also stop the action to throw out "Dreamers" and to eject people who are in the United States through legal temporary status.
