    I was wondering if the bill MTG is gonna try to bring to a vote about making weather modifications illegal could be used against major polluters?

      It could, but the supreme Court and other Republicans would never allow it.

      I am introducing a bill that prohibits the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity. It will be a felony offense.

      I think that “for the express purpose” is in there precisely to prevent those lawsuits.
