Sept. 27, 2019, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning today issued the following statement on today’s so-called “Climate Strike”:
“Apparently, the left feels the need to organize a few more global warming protests before cold weather arrives and takes all of the fun out of them. Regardless, America should not be lectured about the urgency of addressing climate change by a bunch of brainwashed kids looking for an excuse to get out of class or by hypocrites like Tom Steyer who built his fortune by investing in fossil fuels. Nor should anyone support a carbon tax being pushed by billionaires like John Arnold who built his fortune speculating in natural gas and tore down a historic, old mansion to build himself a new 20,000 sq. ft. mansion. If the left is going to sell the American people on climate change, they’re going to have to find some more credible spokespeople — and funders.”
