Fox News reported:

A group of more than two dozen House Republicans led by Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, is introducing legislation Wednesday to defund climate envoy John Kerry’s office at the State Department.

The No Taxpayer Funding for Climate Zealots Advancing Radical Schemes Act would prohibit any federal funds — including for salary, administrative, and travel expenses — from being appropriated for Kerry’s office. In 2021, President Biden appointed Kerry to be the first-ever special presidential envoy for climate, a position that didn’t require Senate approval, and gives him a spot on the president’s cabinet and National Security Council.

“Climate czar John Kerry is the poster child for the Biden administration’s anti-energy policies that are destroying both our economy and national security,” Roy told Fox News Digital in a statement.

“Now John Kerry is visiting China — the top threat to our national security and the world’s number one polluter — to further hamstring energy freedom,” he continued. “It’s time to defund anti-energy climate bureaucrats like John Kerry once and for all.”

He was recently confronted over his private jet usage.
