Marjorie Taylor Greene Proposes Federal Felony Ban on Weather Modification

UNITED STATES, JUL 09 – Marjorie Taylor Greene aims to classify weather modification as a felony, citing dangers and modeling her bill after Florida's law that fines up to $100,000 and includes prison terms.

  • On July 5, 2025, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene announced a bill aimed at banning the injection, release, or spreading of chemicals or materials into the air when done with the intent to modify weather conditions.
  • Her bill follows Florida's Senate Bill 56, signed in June 2025 by Gov. Ron DeSantis, which prohibits cloud seeding and similar geoengineering practices.
  • The announcement came days after deadly floods in central Texas killed at least 82 people, but experts and officials debunked claims linking the disaster to weather modification.
  • Meteorologist Matthew Cappucci said, "Cloud seeding is for a tiny cloud—not a 4-trillion-gallon flood," and called Greene's claims scientifically inaccurate.
  • Greene's legislation revives widely debunked conspiracy theories about engineered weather and seeks to criminalize such practices as felony offenses.
