The National Academy of Sciences, over the years, has published scientific and analytical guidelines specifically for use by the federal judiciary. But the academy was in the hands of extreme left Democrats, and as has now become clear, it published fraudulent, biased, and misleading guidelines about climate change. From these fake guidelines, judges have used them to issue rulings in major cases related to “climate change,” which has caused severe damage across the country. Now these guidelines have been completely invalidated. Our federal judges deserve access to facts and science—not political fraud and fabricated climate science. In light of this truth being made clear, I hereby instruct federal officials to investigate this matter with a suspension and debarment from contracts. American taxpayers should not have to pay for such climate fraud, and judges should never have cited such material. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

President Donald J. Trump
