Conservative leaders are raising serious alarms about the latest trend among liberal policymakers: ambitious efforts to control the weather in the name of combating climate change. This issue took center stage in Congress as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and other Republicans slammed proposals for large-scale weather modification—including cloud seeding and geoengineering—warning that such experiments are an assault on personal freedom and natural order.
Rep. Greene, echoing the concerns of millions of Americans, introduced the “Clear Skies Act” to ban federal funding or support for weather modification. In passionate hearings, Greene called out the arrogance of the left, who trust bureaucrats and “experts” to override nature, despite failures to even forecast yesterday’s weather accurately. These programs, cloaked in promises to heal the environment, are seen by conservatives as a smokescreen for expanding government power and tightening regulation over Americans’ lives.
For over 20 years, the media have admitted weather modification is real.
The Left smeared it as a “conspiracy theory” to silence us because they don’t want Americans asking questions.
Tomorrow’s @DOGECommittee hearing will expose the truth.

It’s not just skepticism about the science—it’s about the consequences. Many on the right warn this is a slippery slope. If liberal elites can control rainfall or sunshine, what’s next? Conservative lawmakers argue that changing the weather is less about saving the planet and more about establishing control, fueling fears of unintended disasters and environmental risks. Multiple GOP-led states have already moved to restrict geoengineering and weather modification, warning of unpredictable harm.
While Democrats in Congress dismissed these concerns as “anti-science conspiracy theory,” Republicans maintain that open debate and transparency are lacking. Greene forcefully reminded colleagues of the federal government’s long, controversial history with weather experiments and called for citizens’ rights to be respected when unelected officials consider tampering with the climate. For many conservatives, this debate isn’t just about the weather—it’s about defending foundational liberties.
Ultimately, the conservative call is clear: innovation shouldn’t become an excuse to undermine American values. Real environmental stewardship comes from respecting God’s creation—not playing God with the climate. As the debate over weather modification heats up, Republican leaders are determined to fight back against any approach that threatens freedom, accountability, or the American way of life.
