Reps. Hariett Hageman (R-WY) and Tom Tiffany (R-WS) filed a bill to block the use of federal funds to pay a demand for reparations issued by any international bodies or courts for alleged violations of international law.
“In July, the International Court of Justice (ICJ), one of the six principal organs of the United Nations (UN), issued an advisory opinion contending that international climate change treaties are binding on UN member states, and that breaching these agreements is an “international wrongful act.” According to the ICJ, countries that produce or consume fossil fuels could be subject to orders demanding they cease all “climate change” activities and pay full reparations to harmed nations.”
Fortunately, President Trump has withdrawn the U.S. from the UN’s Paris Climate Agreement protecting our country from being subject to such nonsense.
However, conservation groups, such as The Nature Conservancy celebrated the action. In this month’s online newsletter they released this announcement:
“Urgent and Existential: Countries have a legal duty to protect people and ecosystems from the “urgent and existential” threats posed by climate change, according to a landmark opinion (Advisory Opinion only, ASL clarification) from the International Court of Justice.” (TNC Global Insights, September 11, 2025)
