Perhaps The Dumbest Thing You'll See This Year From Progressive Climate Cultists

And it’s part of the immigration bill!

Senator Brian Schatz’s (sic) (D-HI) filed an amendment for the immigration bill Wednesday that would allow stateless people in the U.S. to seek conditional lawful status if their nations have been made uninhabitable by climate change.

The Senate’s immigration bill currently recognizes that people who come to the U.S. may have no country to return to for a variety of reasons and allows them to come forward to apply for legal status as a stateless person. But one cause for displacement that is overlooked in current law is how climate change has caused people to lose their homes and their nationality.

Noting that climate change is not some “abstract challenge,” but is already displacing people across the world, Schatz explained:

The amendment I am proposing is quite simple. If enacted, the Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Secretary of State, may designate individuals or a group of individuals displaced permanently by climate change as stateless persons.
Again, let me be clear about what this amendment does. It simply recognizes that climate change, like war, is one of the most significant contributors to homelessness in the world. And like with states torn apart and made uninhabitable by war, we have an obligation not to deport people back to a country made uninhabitable by sea level rise and other extreme environmental changes that render these states desolate. It does not grant any individual or group of individuals outside the United States with any new status or avenue for seeking asylum in the United States.

Last year alone, more than 32 million people fled their homes around the world because of climate-related disasters. Africa and Asia saw the worst impacts, and the highest number of people displaced last year.

Yes, this is from an adult who is in a position to make laws governing the United States of America.

People who have been displaced by natural disasters have not been victims of climate change. They have been victims of forces that have plagued and displaced mankind since the beginning of time.

These climate freaks aren’t just religious zealots, they’re anti-science, anti-American sovereignty and anti-economic principles.

And a lot of them are in charge.
