President Donald Trump’s administration is gearing up to effectively cut NOAA’s Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) by shutting down its primary climate research division, according to multiple reports. [emphasis, links added]
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) sent an internal memo that outlines huge changes to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), according to Politico, Axios, and The New York Times, who reviewed the memo.
If the administration’s proposal makes it through Congress, NOAA’s climate change research will effectively cease, according to reports.
“Reaching balance requires: resetting the proper balance between Federal and State responsibilities with a renewed emphasis on federalism; eliminating the Federal Government’s support of woke ideology; protecting the American people by deconstructing a wasteful and weaponized bureaucracy; and identifying and eliminating wasteful spending,” the memo states, according to Politico.
