Fox News
Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., has penned a letter to Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm, requesting details on taxpayer-related costs to send Energy Department employees to the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference.
Barrasso also said he is "concerned that what appears to be a bloated US delegation will prove counterproductive to the COP's mission, pointing out a "tone of insincerity" as the majority of COP 26 delegates "will have contributed a significant amount of carbon emissions" to attend the conference.
Instead of attending the conference in person, Barrasso hinted that U.S. officials should have used technological means to attend the conference.
