Of course they will!
Republicans are expected to eliminate the Houses Select Committee on the Climate Crisis when they retake power in the lower chamber next year.
We dont see a scenario where the Climate Crisis Committee, a creature of Pelosi, will continue to exist, the office of Rep. Garret Graves (La.), the top Republican on the panel, said in a statement to The Hill, referring to Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).
Garret is committed to delivering on the energy components of the Commitment to America and will be intimately involved in making sure that happens, the statement continued, referring to a GOP policy plan.
That plan includes bolstering oil and gas, mining and hydropower.
Graves told Bloomberg, which first reported on the committees likely demise, The climate crisis committee will not exist.

(1,091 posts)Is there anyway possible that they could find enough GOP moderates that would switch parties or at least do as Angus King does in the Senate - change to Independent and caucus with the Dems?
