Dear all,
A new bill has just been proposed, see
https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/673
"To prohibit US contributions to the IPCC, the UNs Framework Convention
on Climate Change and the Green Climate Fund."
It was created by Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer (Missouri) and
co-sponsored by Reps Sam Grave (Missouri), Jeff Duncan (South Carolina)
and Paul Gosar (Arizona).
For those of you in these districts: please reach out and tell them this
is unacceptable. And for all of us of course, contact your reps.
Cheers, Margot
