On March 27, House Democrats introduced H.R. 9, the Climate Action Now Act, which would forbid using federal funds “to take any actions to advance the withdrawal of the U.S. from the Paris Agreement” and would mandate President Donald Trump to submit a plan for meeting U.S. commitments under the U.N.-brokered accord.

Rep. Frank Pallone (D-N.J.), chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, declared, “We’re not going to withdraw from the Paris Agreement.”

Speaking at Capitol Hill press conference on Wednesday alongside House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), Pallone argued that President Trump’s 2017 announcement that the United States would leave the Paris Agreement undermined America’s international standing.

LOL ! why would it take funds to withdraw from a nebulous economic suicide pact that is already a done deal ?

Oh wait "the house" is involved, they may have to jump on planes with members of their worthless committee and go rub elbows in Paris and discuss ways to destroy our economy over cocktails

OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

Only the Senate can determine treaties. The house has no standing here.

It is a done deal. It is 100% in Donald Trump’s hands.

The House is meaningless now. It can’t DO anything w/o Senate and POTUS.

New Jersey, my home (born & raised here), will never change.

What WILL change is my address.

And it won’t be in New Jersey.

We’re populated (mostly) by idiots, and governed by (ALL OF ‘EM) morons.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGH

Veto number two coming up. A well-deserved veto at that.

This guy pallone is a back-bencher who mainly collects (streals) his paycheck from the taxpayers. What a complete idiot. Doesn’t this fool realize that the “signers” of this worthless agreement are the ones who pollute more than the USA? What an absolute embarrassment to humankind. Doesn’t he realize that his bill is going NOWHERE? What a nitwit.

Trump cannot withdraw because he didn’t ask Pallone’s permission...

Probably the same person that made the comment about “getting all wee wee’d up.” CONgress. Making millionaires out of dumbasses for decades.
