"Democrats Seek Solution In Fight Over 2020 Climate Debate"

"The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is considering two measures that end the conflict over holding a standalone climate debate for 2020 presidential hopefuls, two DNC officials confirmed to The Hill on Monday.

Members of the DNC's executive committee unanimously voted Saturday to allow two measures related to holding a climate debate to be considered further and potentially voted on as early as August.

The two measures, forwarded to the DNC's resolution committee, call for either an official climate change-focused debate or a more intimate forum on the subject."
