Amidst rising scrutiny over misuse of taxpayer money, 23 Republican state attorneys general sent a letter to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Chief Administrator Lee Zeldin, calling for the cancellation of federal grants to the Environmental Law Institute (ELI), which runs the radical “judicial education” effort Climate Judiciary Project (CJP).

The letter calls on the Trump Administration to end the agency’s funding to ELI amid rising concerns over CJP’s role in climate lawfare. From the letter:

“The Climate Judiciary Project’s mission is clear: lobby judges in order to make climate change policy through the courts…the Climate Judiciary Project calls its education “objective and trusted” and “reliable.” Education is not “neutral,” “objective,” or “reliable” if it is provided by individuals who are working with one side in active litigation and is designed to sway judges to that party’s side.”

Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen, who spearheaded the effort, explained why the letter was necessary, as Fox News reports:

“The Environmental Law Institute’s Climate Judiciary Project is using woke climate propaganda, under the guise of what they call ‘neutral’ education, to persuade judges and push their wildly unpopular agenda through the court system.”
