A D.C.-based think tank filed suit Wednesday against D.C. Attorney General Karl Racine, claiming his office has refused to produce any kind of response to several Freedom of Information Act requests seeking documents related to an environmental legal scheme largely funded by former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
In that scheme, Bloomberg funded a new “center” of the New York University School of Law, and the school provides the funding for certain attorneys to be placed within attorney general offices (OAGs) around the country with the sole purpose of pursuing litigation and other legal work related to climate change.
The payment for these attorneys includes their ongoing salaries, so that the OAGs are able to essentially add an extra full-time staff member without having to dip into their budget.
The Competitive Enterprise Institute, which has led the way in obtaining records to uncover the activities across the country, filed the suit asking a judge to compel Racine’s office to fully comply with the requests made under the district’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), which closely mirrors the federal law of the same name.
Chris Horner, a senior fellow at CEI, estimates at least 10 such attorneys are known to have been placed with AG offices in Oregon, D.C., New York, Massachusetts, Maryland, Illinois, New Mexico, and Washington. read more
Hang him.
Sounds like ANOTHER fake science suit waiting to be won! 😀
But if Trump even tries to build the Wall with the GoFundMe money….
I am certain that the AG would also allow for a conservative group to pay for a prosecuting attorney to pursue legal action against the corrupt democrat party so that Hillary and others could properly be put on trial for their crimes, right? Seems like a plan to me.
Anonymous, Hanging him is too good for him. What ever happened to drawn and quartered??
