During a recent interview with Larry Kudlow on Fox Business, U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) discussed Republican efforts to preserve Title 42 border policies to address the crisis at the southern border and the upcoming consideration of the United States Innovation and Competition Act. Lummis was asked about legislation from Senator Bill Hagerty (R-TN) that would allow the Title 42 Public Health Order that’s in place due to the pandemic to combat drug smuggling at the border.

On the the United States Innovation and Competition Act, Lummis said it is more spending on climate than can possibly address climate in a meaningful or responsible way and one of the problems that’s being encountered in Congress is that the response to climate change is to throw money at it in indiscriminate, poorly vetted ways. Lummis added that it is then sprinkled throughout the budgets, it’s in places you’d never think to look for it and it is being wasted on things that will not move the needle on climate change.
