Earley Calls for the Firing of John Kerry

BRIDGEPORT, W.Va. - Dec. 12, 2023 - PRLog -- Today, Veteran and Republican Congressional candidate Joe Earley (R-WV2), called on President Joe Biden to fire John Kerry as the United States Special Presidential Envoy for Climate and to abolish the position with the Executive Office.

"John Kerry just took a private jet to the United Nations COP28 conference in Dubai to suggest that our country should eliminate coal-fired power plants. This is not a well thought out plan. Strategically, it would harm our nation while not reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Clearly, Kerry is more interested in making headlines than sound policy. One headline I want to see is Kerry fired," said Earley. "Not only is this position a waste of taxpayer dollars, but it is also harmful to our country."

The United States Special Presidential Envoy for Climate position was created by President Biden for Kerry. It has authority over energy policy and climate policy within the executive branch.

"Countries such as China will continue to build coal-fired plants to supply the energy that nation needs. Kerry would put America at an energy disadvantage and decimate the state of West Virginia's economy. It is no wonder why he lost his attempts to become president. As it stands today, he should be booted out of his job in the Executive Branch and sent back to Massachusetts where he can depend on windmills to keep him warm," said Earley.

"Kerry's approach blindly ignores all the major advances in clean coal and how coal is important to our nation. He would only make us further dependent on foreign countries for energy," said Earley.

Coal accounts for 20 percent of American energy.

On a different media note, two weeks ago, Earley released his plan for ending illegal immigration. His comprehensive plan includes:

-Building the wall,
-No federal government payouts to illegal immigrants,
-End the catch and release program that allows criminal illegal immigrants back on to our streets,
-Increasing funding for ICE,
-End birthright citizenship for babies born to parents who are illegally in the United States,
-End chain migration for non-immediate family members,
-Hold back federal funding for sanctuary states and cities,
-End the abuse of asylum claims,
-Prohibit taxpayer dollars from paying for attorneys for illegal immigrants,
-End the visa lottery system.
-Prohibit illegal aliens from receiving taxpayer-funded benefits such as health care, welfare and housing,
-Increasing penalties on businesses that purposely hire illegal aliens,
-Requiring mandatory employer verification,
-Re-evaluate criteria for refugee status,
-Strengthen background checks on visas,
-Withhold certain federal funds for states that allow illegal immigrants to get drivers' licenses,
-End visa overstays,
-Increase penalties for human trafficking,
-Increase funds for courts dealing with deportation disputes, and deny false asylum claims access to our courts, and
-Enact merit-based immigration reform to expedite naturalization process.

Earley is the only candidate putting out real plans. He is also the only candidate who has visited the border.
