On the recordNovember 8, 2023
Again, this is just another attempt by this radical administration to put up another commission to fleece the American taxpayers who are struggling as it is. On January 21, 2021, President Biden signed the radical climate Executive Order No. 13990, which established an Interagency Working Group on the Social Cost of Greenhouse Gases and directed the working group to publish interim estimates of the social cost of carbon, nitrous oxide, and methane. President Biden is now directing agencies to consider the SC-GHG in the development and implementation of their budgets, Federal procurement processes, and environmental reviews. Social cost of greenhouse gases metrics are inefficient policymaking tools used to justify sweeping, radical climate policies and strict regulations that are interpreted by lifelong bureaucrats. Mr. Chairman, I urge my colleagues to adopt my amendment, and I reserve the balance of my time.
