Sen. Tom Udall (D-N.M.) used his opening statement at an Appropriations subcommittee hearing on the Environmental Protection Agency’s 2020 budget request to warn about the existence of “a new kind of refugee - climate refugees” - a byproduct of climate change. “First and foremost, this administration has abandoned all efforts to fight climate change, and you’ve personally doubled down on that by denying climate change is even a major crisis. Administrator Wheeler, climate change is a major and very real crisis,” said Udall, ranking member of the Subcommittee on Department of the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies.

Anyone with a pulse can see the gears meshing: take down the USA by crippling commerce with climate change regs and mass immigration.

I am a climate refugee leaving Las Vegas during the long, hot summer months from late May through late September. Otherwise, there is no such thing as a climate refugee.

I live in Palm Springs year ´round and every winter I´m swarmed by "climate refugees." They´re called snowbirds.

What about a new type of refugee, a tax burden refugee?
Since Democrats don´t mind "open borders", why not allow people to determine which state tax level they´d like to identify with?

We now have climate refugees, and they are seeking to relocate to the evil polluting empire most responsible for all of the world´s problems? Do I have that right?
Im calling Barbara Schiff on this one.

There have always been bad blizzards on the Great Plains and big floods along the Midwest river basins.
Everybody who lives in those regions knows that every winter deadly blizzards could occur, and that there is a chance of heavy snow over wide areas that will cause massive flooding during the early Spring melt, especially along the river basins and low lying areas where floods have occurred in the past for since long before the first settlers have moved into those regions. Most of the effected people do not consider themselves to be “refugees” of any sort, and just as in the past, simply rebuild and move on. The real big change is that there are now a lot more people residing in those historic blizzard and flood prone areas. This Senator Udall is just saying what the climate change special interest groups are telling him to politically advocate.

They are trying to get as much mileage as they can out of this hoax. We in PHX, also suffer the snowbirds, illegals, and tax refugees, so much so that it is severely changing the landscape here.

Let´s expand this to the extreme level of stupidity:
There are all sorts of ´refugees.´
Economic, marital, educational, emotional, psychological, physical(ill/disabled), faith-based, social, and .....

When we can prevent the Sun from ´´coming up´´ every morning, then I will start being concerned about what we might do to the climate.
Unfortunately, liberals are the product of the failed liberal education system. They should have learned that nature is not static. It is ever changing.
Climate change is now a fuzzy, undefined concept that can mean whatever one wants it to mean. Hotter? Colder? More rain this year than last? Less? Ad Nauseum...

Do any of these Democrats have an original thought? This claim is copied from the standard claims of the AGW true believers for years.
