The Tennessee Conservative Staff –
The Tennessee House passed legislation that would prohibit the intentional release of chemicals into the air in an attempt to modify the weather, temperature, or sunlight intensity.
House Bill 2063 (HB2063) is sponsored by Representative Monty Fritts (R-Kingston-District 32). In Monday’s House session, Fritts moved to conform to companion Senate Bill 2691 (SB2691), sponsored by Senator Steve Southerland (R-Morristown-District 9).
Representative John Ray Clemmons introduced an amendment to the legislation that would add the following new section: “The intentional injection, release, or dispersion, by any means, of chemicals, chemical compounds, substances, or apparatus within the borders of this state into the atmosphere with the express purpose of affecting temperature, weather, or the intensity of the sunlight, which may threaten the Sasquatch and its natural habitat, is prohibited.”
Clemmons noted that he did not intend for his amendment to be taken seriously and moved to withdraw it, asking as well that the sponsor withdraw the bill because it should not be taken seriously either.
There was objection to the withdrawal, and House members voted against withdrawing the amendment. The floor was then opened for discussion on the amendment.
Several representatives, both in jest and in seriousness, asked questions of Clemmons related to the amendment. Previous question was eventually called, and the sponsor was allowed to make closing comments.
Fritts was bothered by Clemmons’ proposed amendment making light of what Fritts considers a true health risk for Tennesseans.
“It bothers me to have to bring this legislation to you. It bothers me further that we would take something as serious as clean air, clean water, and clean soil to grow our crops in and make a laughing stock of it with an amendment here tonight. I’m sad to see that the Tennesseans who are watching this tonight might see that some members in this House don’t take serious their health. And I think that is, quite indeed, a travesty,” Fritts stated.
Fritts went on to further elaborate on the effects of cloud seeding on the weather, and, in turn, the health of people in the state.
He continued, “I submit to you that this is a very common sense thing to do, and we should prohibit this in the state of Tennessee.”
Representative Bo Mitchell (D-Nashville-District 50) asked who would be enforcing the legislation.
Fritts did not answer this question but instead further explained the risks of weather modification.
Mitchell responded, “It’s appropriate that this is on the floor on April 1st.”
Previous question was then called and the bill passed with 70 ayes, 22 nays, and 1 present not voting.
Not all House Republicans voted for the bill. Representative Sam Whitson (R-Franklin-District 65) voted against the legislation, while Representative John Ragan (R-Oak Ridge-District 33) was marked as present but not voting.
The companion Senate bill passed on March 18. This legislation will be forwarded on to Governor Lee to await his action.
Well if you think Sam Whitson is a conservative you are sadly mistaken, he is in fact, ‘regular old nice guy’, but he is certainly NOT a conservative. District 65 voters should focus on electing a real conservative and shy away from anyone Sam endorses as just another RINO!. Same has not even acted or voted like a constitutional scholar (think Gino Bulso here!) because he isn’t! Apparently, he and some others, Bo Mitchel and ‘Johnny Ray’ Clemmons and most other DUMOCRATS in the legislature think weather modification is a fringe, conspiracy theory; However, there are informed people in the agricultural sector that have spoken directly about these measures happening over the U.S. skies. Their cynicism simply shows their IGNORANCE and unwillingness to listen. Fritts is correct, this is a real factor facing Tennesseans and their food safety. You are naive or stupid to think otherwise.
I agree with everything you just said. These politicians are not for the people, they are for themselves. Passing bills that the people don’t want and not passing the ones the people do want. We need a whole do over of the House and senate. Even the ones I thought were good are just giving lip service. They forgot along time ago that they are servants of the people, not the other way around.
Geoengineering is messing with Mother Nature and dangerous to our environment and our health! Watch the documentary on Geoengineering “The Dimming”.These are not jet contrails (steam) that dissipate. These chemicals expand and create fake clouds that block our sun. These chemicals
are raining upon us. Our local bee keepers are saying they have less and less bees.
This is nothing more than common sense!
Any one who isn’t taking this seriously needs to be removed from elected office as they are NOT looking out for the people or our beautiful country!
Just over a week ago in (March) while driving on Hwy 111 near the Sparta Airport, we saw the oddest looking clouds like puffs of clouds in rows in the sky. These definitely were not normal. Within 5 minutes all three of us in the vehicle experienced burning in our nose and throats. Anyone who thinks this is a joke is mistaken. Thank God this is being passed in TN.
This will at the very least ensure more investigation into the contrail issue.
Well if Governor Lee signed this bill I would like to know why they are still spraying our skies. All day yesterday and today the planes were out , 4 to 6 planes spraying our beautiful blue skies turning them into a grayish white color, it’s disgusting. Back and forth crisscrossing all day long. I live in the country in Montgomery County, I am also near Cheatham County, and I’m sure it covered much more area than just these two counties. Most likely we will have storms, lightning, wind and lots of rain in a few days, that’s pretty much the pattern after they are done spraying. I’ve also noticed a heavy mist that lingers in the air after a storm. Please, it’s insanity has to stop.
