The Cancelling Climate Crusaders Act would prohibit the Corporation for National and Community Service from establishing a Civilian Climate Corps, American Climate Corps, or any similar program authorized by a prior executive order. The bill would also block the Corporation from directing other entities to create such programs or providing guidance to partner organizations involved in related activities. The prohibited activities include promoting environmental justice, restoring roads, reclaiming lands damaged by mining and extraction, organizing community resilience efforts, developing farm-to-institution food distribution, conducting energy audits, advising on climate policy, educating students about climate issues, and improving pollution monitoring. The bill would effectively eliminate efforts to create a national service program focused on climate and environmental work. No specific funding amounts or implementation timelines are outlined in the legislation.
