Writing on X, the Republican politician said she was creating legislation that would make “the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity” a felony.
…
“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,” she wrote. “It will be a felony offense.”
She added: “We must end the dangerous and deadly practice of weather modification and geoengineering.”
There is a nugget of ‘truth’ here:

I can’t find my good source on tis, but there are very real proposals to seed the arctic or antarctic with aerosols to stem a runaway greenhouse gas effect.
It’s horrific. It would basically rain down sulfiric acid onto the terrain; even worse than it sounds. But it would only cost billions, not trillions of other geoengineering schemes I’ve scene.
…And the worst part is it’s arctic/climate researchers proposing this. They intimately know exactly how awful it would be, which shows how desperate they are to even publish such a thing.
But I can totally understand how a layman (maybe vaguley familiar with chemtrail conspiracies) would come across this and be appalled, and how conservative influencers pounce on it cause they can’t help themselves.
Thanks to people like MTG, geoengineering efforts will never even be considered. :(
TL;DR Scientists really are proposing truly horrific geoengineering schemes “injecting chemicals into the atmosphere” out of airplanes. But it’s because of how desperate they are to head off something apocalyptic, and it’s not even close to being implemented. They’re just theories and plans.
you and i both know that she is not talking about any actual scientific proposal
“Scientists.” I wonder how many are sponsored by fossil fuel extractors?
No, you misunderstand; it’s a sound scheme. I wouldn’t be against it.
…Which just underscores how horrific of a situation we are in. It’s an akin to “okay, a meteor is coming; what about this plan to deflect it into the arctic?”
Fossil fuel companies are lobbying for the “everything is fine” propaganda, not geoengineering schemes that indirectly reinforce how dangerously unstable the planet could be.
