Conservative groups have crafted a plan for demolishing the federal government’s efforts to counter climate change — and it wouldn’t stop with President Joe Biden’s policies.
The 920-page blueprint, whose hundreds of authors include former Trump administration officials, would go far beyond past GOP efforts to slash environmental agencies’ budgets or oust “deep state” employees.
Called Project 2025, it would block the expansion of the electrical grid for wind and solar energy; slash funding for the Environmental Protection Agency’s environmental justice office; shutter the Energy Department’s renewable energy offices; prevent states from adopting California’s car pollution standards; and delegate more regulation of polluting industries to Republican state officials.
Funny how their “small government” would be preventing “states rights” they whine so much about. They should just come out and say what they demonstrate with their actions, they dont care about any one except themselves.
The “small government” “states’ rights” type have always been disingenuous about that. Remember the Fugitive Slave Act? Same thing. States’ rights to have slavery, no states’ rights to refuse to be complicit in slavery.
