U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), a Ranking Member of the Environment and Public Works (EPW) Committee, and Senator Pete Ricketts (R-NE) held a press conference last week to discuss additional oversight findings of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
They highligted the radical, extremist groups being funded through the Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act’s (IRA) $3 billion in Environmental and Climate Justice Block Grant program.
The Gateway Pundit reported in May that Capito announced the EPA gave a $50 million grant to a “climate justice” group that, according to Capito, is involved in pro-Hamas, anti-Israel, and anti-Semitic activities.
Through funding from the IRA, the EPA awarded the grant to the Climate Justice Alliance (CJA) which showcases antisemitic, anti-Israel, and pro-Hamas imagery on its social media.
