EPA Using Federal Money To Fund "Climate Justice" Group Heavily Engaged In Middle East Political Action

EPA using federal money to fund "Climate justice" group heavily engaged in Middle East political action.

The Environmental Protection Agency has awarded a $50 million grant to a controversial group known as the Climate Justice Alliance with funds from the Inflation Reduction Act.

The idea of spending $50 million on something like "Climate justice" is absurd on its own, but now Senator Shelley Moore Capito is drawing attention to the fact that the group receiving the funds "Engages in pro-Hamas, anti-Israel and anti-Semitic activities."

Regardless of how one feels about Israel's actions in Gaza or the tendency to use the "Antisemitic label" to suppress criticism of the Jewish State, giving such a high sum to the Climate Justice Alliance for something called "Climate justice" is hard to get behind.

A video on the Climate Justice Alliance's website claims to show a link between so-called "Climate justice and the liberation of Palestine" using an "Anti-colonial framework." By restoring indigenous sovereignty, they think that the "Climate crisis" can be mitigated.

According to the group, the money will be used "To serve as a bridge, model and catalyst among organizations nationwide to confront the legacy of environmental harms; strengthen the environmental justice movement; mitigate the effects of climate change; support frontline communities in enacting their localized visions for thriving communities; and pilot co-governance between the EPA and frontline communities hit first and worst by environmental injustice and the climate crisis."

According to the Washington Free Beacon, the Climate Justice Alliance reported total overall revenue of just under $36 million from 2020 to 2023.
