And we have to prevent a false narrative from entering into this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kerry has held his position as Biden\u2019s climate czar since the beginning of his presidency. In August 2021, Fox News <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/john-kerry-private-jet-emissions-climate-change\">reported<\/a> that Kerry\u2019s \u201cfamily\u00a0jet has already emitted 30 times the amount of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/science\/planet-earth\/climate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">carbon<\/a> emitted by a typical passenger vehicle per year.\u201d\u00a0 The report cited flight data reviewed by the outlet and found \u201cthe jet emitted an estimated 138 metric tons of carbon on trips dating from Jan. 10 to Aug. 6.\u201d That means Kerry\u2019s jet \u201cemitted 30 times the amount of carbon emitted by a typical passenger vehicle per year,\u201d Fox added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Biden administration\u2019s jet-setting \u2018climate czar\u2019 is actively destroying reliable American energy by saddling us with outrageous commitments at hypocritical climate conferences, pressuring banks not to lend to fossil fuel producers, and fighting to end oil and gas production,\u201d Roy told The Daily Wire.<\/p>\n<p>The former Massachusetts senator has made it a habit to travel around the world while spouting pro-green energy agenda. In March, Kerry lamented that the war in Ukraine could have a massive impact on the climate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut it could have a profound negative impact on the climate obviously,\u201d Kerry <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/not-a-joke-john-kerry-is-worried-war-in-ukraine-will-distract-world-leaders-from-climate-change\">said<\/a> at the time. \u201cYou have a war and obviously you\u2019re going to have massive emissions consequences to the war. But equally important, you\u2019re going to lose people\u2019s focus, you\u2019re going to lose certainly big country attention because they will be diverted and I think it could have a damaging impact.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It is unclear how much tax-payer money Kerry and his staff are allocated. In March, the Boston Herald <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/how-much-are-taxpayers-paying-climate-czar-john-kerry-he-wont-say-but-one-gop-senator-is-demanding-answers\">requested<\/a> the information via a Freedom of Information Act request, and Kerry\u2019s office told the newspaper they could not submit the requested data until October 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Roy\u2019s bill officially reads, \u201cNotwithstanding any other provision of law, no Federal funds may be used for the Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, including for salary, administrative, and travel expenses of the Special Presidential Envoy for Climate and for any other activity of the Special Presidential Envoy for Climate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEnough,\u201d Roy concluded in his statement to The Daily Wire. \u201cIf we\u2019re going to fight for energy freedom in this country, we have to defund climate tyrants like John Kerry; my bill would do just that.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Thursday, Representative Chip Roy (R-TX) introduced a bill that would defund President Joe Biden\u2018s special presidential envoy for climate \u2014 a position currently held by former Secretary of State John Kerry.
