We apparently cannot remove politicians for sending COVID patients to nursing homes, instead giving them awards. Nor for misusing their offices, major campaign finance offenses, and more. Nope. But, Wrongthink?
Pennsylvania lawmaker subject of removal petition over climate change views
Butler County Rep. Daryl Metcalfe, one of the General Assembly’s most conservative members with a habit of sponsoring impeachment resolutions, now faces a removal petition of his own.
The Better Path Coalition asked House Speaker Bryan Cutler, R-Lancaster, to remove Metcalfe as majority chairman of the House Environmental Resources and Energy Committee this week over his views on climate change.
“A minimum qualification of the person who wields the most power on climate policy in the legislature is that they accept climate change,†said the coalition in a letter signed by 42 other groups opposed to his chairmanship and delivered to Cutler this week. “Metcalfe is an unabashed climate denier.â€
Karen Feridun, co-founder of the coalition, said 70 percent of residents support climate action as the toll of weather-related disasters grows more severe each year. In 2020 alone, such natural disaster have cost the country $16 billion, the coalition said.
OK, they just want him gone from the committee, which seems to be about the environment and energy, real issues, not the climate crisis scam
“Speaker Cutler has no choice but to seize this opportunity to name a chair who has the skills and the basic understanding of science needed to address the unfolding climate crisis,†she said.
Oh, he has many choices, and the one he will probably take is for the climate cultist Democrats to go pound sand.
