New Report Exposes Global Warming ‘Law Enforcement for Rent’

 

Report details how wealthy donors are paying for lawyers to pursue environmental cases by state AGs

 

Deep-pocketed global-warming activists have been pouring big bucks into attorney general’s offices to pay for lawyers to advance their agenda and use the powers of the law to take actions they never could achieve alone, according to a new report.

 

Released Wednesday by the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), the 56-page document dubbed “Law Enforcement for Rent” paints a damning view of the cozy relationship between environmental activists and Democratic attorneys general in several states that have pulled off an end-run around the democratic process — grabbing resources that they have not been able to get from lawmakers.

 

“This is political. We have a policymaking process. They tried it and failed,” said Christopher Horner, a fellow at the think tank who wrote the report. “So their stance is, ‘It’s not working, so we’re going to use law enforcement.’”

 

Horner said the tactic has given environmental activists a new avenue to increase restrictions on carbon emissions after Congress rebuffed them, the Supreme Court blocked a regulatory plan offered by President Barack Obama and other supportive politicians lost races at the state and national levels.

 

“They failed at the ballot box,” he said. “They failed at legislation. They failed via the rule-making process … So, they’re going to use the courts.”

 

At best, Horner said, the public-private partnerships are unethical. At worst, they are illegal, he said.

 

Environmental activists spend hundreds of millions of dollars a year in an attempt to discredit global-warming “deniers,” according to the report. That eye-popping total emerges from a public records request by CEI that produced an email from an aide to California Gov. Jerry Brown last year to staff members of the governors of Washington and New York states.
