Trump Calls For Review Related To Scientific Manual Used By Judges
Trump said the manual contains discredited climate information and ordered federal officials to review the conduct behind it.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump ordered Federal Suspension and Deparment Officials to review conduct related to the Federal Judicial Center's Reference Manual, calling the climate chapter "discredited" and claiming it caused "huge losses."
- Earlier this year, the Federal Judicial Center withdrew the Climate chapter after Republican attorneys general argued it was biased against fossil fuel companies. Their pressure campaign prompted the judiciary's decision.
- Designed to help Federal Judges evaluate expert testimony, the manual's fourth edition included a Climate section authored by Columbia Law School professors Jessica Wentz and Radley Horton.
- It remains unclear which agencies will execute the directive or what enforcement actions may follow. The White House did not respond to requests for comment regarding the President's post.
- This administrative review follows other recent judicial setbacks for the President, including a Federal Judges' decision striking down a fee imposed on H-1B visas. The directive signals escalating administrative pressure.
