One of President Donald Trump’s top allies on Capitol Hill has introduced legislation to stop potential human meddling with the weather.

On Tuesday, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) said she filed the “Clear Skies Act” to ban “weather modification” and geoengineering. It comes as online conspiracy theorists claim without evidence that weather-altering technology was behind the recent catastrophic flooding in Texas.

“Finally, we can really take the fight in Washington to protect our skies, protect our water, protect our atmospheres, and most of all, protect our families,” Greene said in a video posted on social media.
