Limiting Emergency Declarations Based on Climate Change
This bill aims to restrict the U.S. President's ability to declare national emergencies, major disasters, or public health emergencies solely based on climate change. This means future declarations of such states would need to be based on other, more direct causes, potentially influencing how the government responds to climate-related events.
Key points
The President cannot declare a national emergency if climate change is the sole premise.
Major disasters or emergencies cannot be declared based solely on climate change.
Public health emergencies cannot be declared if climate change is the only reason.
