First on Fox: A conservative group of climate policy urges the president of the judicial committee of the Chamber, representative Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, to assign the files of the climatic judicial project of the Institute of Environmental Law within the framework of an ongoing investigation into the influence of climate advocacy groups in dispute on climate policy.

Jason Isaac, CEO of the American Energy Institute, a conservative group of pro-American energy production policy, wrote a letter to Jordan last week pointing evidence of a county of MultNomah of September 12 c. Exxonmobil et al. The judicial file which, according to him, suggests a “secret coordination and judicial manipulation”.

“This new proof raises serious red flags on the credibility of the” so-called science used in climate proceedings and legal training programs behind the bench, “ISAAC told Fox News Digital.

According to Isaac’s letter to Jordan, the deposit of the court submitted by Chevron Corporation earlier this month reveals that “one of the main lawyers of the complainants, Roger Worthington, had an unknown involvement in at least two supposedly scientific studies which the county presents as independent evidence and examined by peers.”

One of these studies “recognized the financing of the climatic judicial project in a version project, but this disclosure was inexplicably abolished from the final publication,” said Isaac in the letter.

Previous versions of the study, labeled “do not distribute”, were found on the website of the Worthington law firm, the letter revealed.

According to the American Energy Institute, the study aims to “attribute the global economic losses of climate change to specific oil companies”. The website also included a “pre-publication project for a CJP judicial training module” with internal editorial comments, according to the letter.

Isaac told Jordan that this increase raises “serious questions about how and why the lawyer of an applicant had early access and possibly an editorial influence on the documents presented to the judges of the State and Federal as a” neutral “science.

Another module was designed to “educate” participants’ judges on how to apply “assignment science” in the courtroom, according to Isaac.

“The Institute of Environmental Law has claimed neutrality, but the documents suggest coordination with the advice of the complainants who benefit from the results,” Isaac told Fox News Digital. “If the same lawyers who pursue energy societies shape studies and educate judges, it is not justice; it is manipulation. Congress is right to dig more deeply, and the American Energy Institute is proud to support this effort.”

Isaac asks that Jordan officially requests “communications, documents of documents, financing agreements and internal editorial notes linked to scientific studies and the CJP program”.

While congratulating Jordan’s leadership, Isaac said: “The judges and the public deserve whether the courtroom is quietly shaped by the coordinated climate advocacy pretending to be neutral expertise.”

Isaac said the Institute of Environmental Law and Worthington should answer several questions about their involvement in studies, including the “judicial training module on the science of attribution”.

“Does Eli regularly seek the comments of the lawyers’ lawyers on his judicial training modules?” Questioned Isaac.

“ELI has not financed the study on nature, and the climatic judicial project did not coordinate with Mr. Worthington,” spokesman for the Environment Institute Nick Collins said in Fox News Digital in a press release.

“The CJP does not participate or provides no support for disputes,” added Collins. “Rather, the CJP provides continuous training based on evidence to judges on climate science and how it occurs in law. Our study program is based on facts and first in science, based on consensus reports and developed with a solid peer examination process which meets the highest university standards.”

When 23 republican state prosecutors sent a letter last month to the head of the Environmental Protection Agency Lee Zeldin The appellant to cancel the financing of the Institute of Environmental Law, Collins told Fox News Digital that the projects of the climate judicial project were far from being “radical”.

“The programs in which the climatic judicial project (CJP) participates are not different from other legal education programs, providing training based on evidence on legal and scientific subjects to which judges voluntarily choose to assist,” said Collins.
