CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WVDN) — West Virginia Attorney General JB McCuskey announced that the Federal Judicial Center is withdrawing the climate science chapter from the Reference Manual on Scientific Evidence.
Attorney General McCuskey received a letter from the Director of the Federal Judicial Center on Friday evening informing him of the change, after leading the charge with a coalition of other attorneys general.
“I’m proud of the effort of our coalition. As we stated in our letter to the Center, impartiality is a cornerstone of our judicial system. Judges across the country use the Manual to help guide their decisions and bias towards left-leaning climate policies would have absolutely tipped the scales in many cases. I’m glad the Center heard our rational and commonsense argument for removing the chapter. It’s a win for domestic energy production, American prosperity and security, and West Virginia,” Attorney General McCuskey said.
