Central to our strategy is a petition-litigation practice that requires courts to reevaluate prior decisions, hold agencies and government employees to account, and put false science on trial.In addition to coordinating with legal experts to identify strong plaintiffs, we serve as a clearing-house for expert witnesses, research, amicus briefs, and consultations to like-minded litigators nationwide.<p style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">We conduct “offensive” rather than “defensive” litigation.  If you have a problem with an environmental regulatory agency, whether local, state or federal, and you believe they have stepped outside the fair playing field, you may be our customer, and we would like to hear about your problems.  If we are not able to undertake your case, we will advise on who else may be able to, or how you may otherwise find relief from your problem.Please contact us by email at <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130902182614/mailto:Info@FMELawClinic.org" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Info@FMELawClinic.org</a> and we will follow up.---<h1 class="entry-title" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; clear: both; line-height: 1.3em;">Litigation</h1><div class="entry-content" style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 12px 0px 0px; vertical-align: baseline; clear: both;">The FME Law Clinic provides litigation and research services to qualified clients.  We concentrate on cases involving landmark free-market pro-environmental litigation; use of open records and data quality laws to force greater governmental accountability and transparency; and, cases that allow the Clinic to help create the next generation of free market oriented attorneys.  The Clinic has paired with the American Tradition Institute in order to prosecute three cases, described below.  In addition, the Clinic has an active Freedom of Information Act practice.  <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130902200859/http://fmelawclinic.org/?page_id=9#FOIA" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Current FOIAs are also listed below</a>.  At the bottom of this page is a brief <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130902200859/http://fmelawclinic.org/?page_id=9#NEW" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">description of new litigation the Clinic is contemplating pursuing</a>. Active Cases<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130902200859/http://fmelawclinic.org/?page_id=464" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Occoquan Watershed Coalition v. EPA</a>FME Law is representing the Occoquan Watershed Coalition (OWC ) in a law suit against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The OWC alleges that EPA has violated the Tenth Amendment by imposing a water quantity standard on Virginia and Fairfax County that will cost as much as $225 Million. If the County is forced to spend that much money on a single watershed, it will mean not one of the other 29 watersheds in the County will receive funds for their restoration, including the eight watersheds in the OWC’s territory.<p style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130902200859/http://www.atinstitute.org/american-tradition-institute-v-university-of-virginia-dr-michael-mann/" style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">American Tradition Institute v.

National Aeronautics and Space Administration</a>
(records of Dr. James Hansen, Freedom of Information Act Petition filed June 21, 2011) On June 21, 2011 American Tradition Institute’s Environmental Law Center filed a lawsuit in federal district court in the District of Columbia to force NASA to release ethics records for Dr. Hansen. The action followed NASA’s denial of ATI’s federal <a title="Hansen Ethics FOIA" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130902200859/http://www.americantraditioninstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/ATI_NASA_Hansen_Ethics_FOIA.pdf" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Freedom of Information Act request </a>with NASA, seeking records detailing whether and how ‘global warming’ activist Dr. James Hansen of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) has complied with applicable federal ethics and financial disclosure laws and regulations, and NASA Rules of Behavior.<p style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> This case forced NASA and the U.S. Office of Governmental Ethics to change its policy on release of public documents as well as how NASA and others implement their ethics responsibilities (poorly). It has resulted in an ongoing investigation by the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Government Operations. <a name="FOIA" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">FOIA Actions</a>§  University of Virginia – Requested Mann emails associated with his academic duties. This matter is now before a Virginia Circuit Court for failure of UVA to meet its responsibilities under the Virginia FOIA and to challenge the University’s claims that 12,000 emails are exempt from FOIA. Mann has entered the case as a party (defendant). As of early 2012 we are in motions practice on our effort to proceed to discovery.§  University of Virginia – Requested Michael Mann’s research logs or the written authorization allowing Mann to take his log upon his departure from UVA. The University responded stating it did not have a log and had no release authorization. UVA also refused to inquire as to whether Mann actually kept a research log. As such, FME Law has effectively established that he kept no research log which is why no one, including Mann, can duplicate the research underpinning his infamous Hockey Stick-shaped reconstruction of global temperature.§  University of Virginia – Requested evidence that 15 faculty members who engaged in publishing peer-reviewed scientific papers actually kept research logs associated with that research. The University requires faculty to maintain such logs so that others can duplicate the research using the exact same methods. Of the 15, only one research log was found, and it belonged to a clinical assistant. Not one faculty member appears to have kept a research log.§  George Mason University – Requested and received the Wegman records sought by USA Today, thereby establishing what is proper, and what are disparate, implementation practices under Virginia’s FOI law by different universities or, arguably, depending on the published views of the subject of the FOI request. Professor Wegman’s emails document the validity of the deconstruction of the Mann Hockey Stick.§  National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) – Requested Jim Hansen’s ethics compliance records regarding outside employment and other activity. We established that Dr. Hansen received approximately ten times his salary in gifts, outside employment and speaking fees, all as a result of his environmental advocacy. Should he choose to testify again in Congress he now has specific, troubling questions to answer. His records show he and his supervisors failed to properly follow the NASA ethics requirements.  On behalf of ATI Law, the FME Law Clinic filed to force release of the records in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.  NASA settled the matter, releasing all records sought, and we are in the fee-recovery stage of this litigation.§  Harvard-Smithsonian – Requested records provided Greenpeace regarding correspondence associated with the Soon/Baliunas. These were received in a timely fashion. Soon and Baliunas published a landmark paper debunking the argument that the Medieval Warming Period was only a Northern Hemisphere phenomena, showing it was a global event.§  Harvard-Smithsonian – Requested additional correspondence reflecting the efforts revealed in “Climategate” emails to seek the dismissal of Soon and Baliunas in response to their having published particular research. These documents have not been produced on a timely basis and may require litigation to free them.§  National Science Foundation – Requested Verardo/Mann correspondence. Mann refused to release fundamental data and results used to support his Hockey Stick temperature reconstruction. When the same data was sought from the National Science Foundation, who provided the grant for Mann’s research, NSF’s Verardo refused to provide the data. ATI sought the email correspondence between Mann and Verardo associated with this matter. NSF claimed it possessed no such records though on appeal FME Law provided certain responsive correspondence which is already publically available on the internet, and noted our ability to establish the existence of more. FME Law appealed this response. NSF’s responded on January 19, 2012 seeking a ten-day extension to consult internally, as is permitted by statute.§  National Science Foundation – Requested additional documents associated with the Verardo/Mann discussions on disclosure of Mann’s data. After invoking statutory authority for a ten-day extension to consult internally, as the request seeks certain records produced by the general counsel’s office, NSF promised a response by February 2, 2012.§  National Science Foundation – Requested other Verardo/Mann Correspondence during the time of NAS panel on climate change for a broader window of time than the original request sought.  NSF has promised a response by January 25, 2012.§  University of Arizona – Requested correspondence among Hughes, Mann and Overpeck associated with efforts to have journal editors fired on the basis that they accepted papers critical of Mann. UofA has acknowledged receipt of the FOIA but has not responded and are under no specific statutory time constraint. This may require litigation to force production in a reasonable period of time.§  U.S. Department of Justice – Requested copies of documents associated with the release of emails from the University of East Anglia (Climategate), beginning in 2009 and through the recent British criminal investigation, in which DOJ has participated. A response was due on January 19, 2012.§  Texas Tech – Requested documents of erstwhile “climate” chapter contributor Professor Katharine Hayhoe to, from and citing Newt Gingrich, and his forthcoming book on environmental issues.  The University refused to produce the documents, producing one redacted email affirming Hayhoe was indeed engaged by Gingrich’s co-author to produce the chapter, as well as the chapter’s inclusion in the book as of December 7, 2011, despite Gingrich claims to the contrary days later.  FME Law has appealed this unlawful redaction and filed a complaint with the Texas Attorney General regarding TTU’s admission that they violated the Texas transparency laws by failing to seek the AG’s approval before withholding responsive information. FME Law requested the AG compel TTU to produce responsive records, and submitted a second request going back to the date of the first request for Hayhoe’s chapter, in 2007.§  U.S. Environmental Protection Agency – Requested copies of policies and internal guidance on how the agency processes citizen petitions authorized under the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. This is the first step in a planned examination on whether EPA processes petitions from those it endorses as compared to those who criticize the agency. <p style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><a name="NEW" style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; text-decoration-line: underline; background-color: rgb(255, 204, 102);">Prospective Cases</a><p style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">ATI v.

He added that the August settlement came after he threatened to challenge in court the allegations against him. <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s19" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[19]</a>“They (the allegations) were without foundation. Horner et al settled because we were about to go before a judge and document that none of them were true. Basically, we let him off the hook.” <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s19" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[19]</a>“This case is an example of what happens to a law partnership when the partners end up unhappy with each other. No one at FME Law wanted to work with Horner any longer. So, we let him go and gave him some of the capital so he could start over on his own,” Schnare told DeSmog. <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s19" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[19]</a>Hardin offered a different version of events. Responding to Schnare's statement, Hardin told DeSmog in an email that the lawsuits brought by the FMELC board  “accurately detail what happened.” <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s19" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[19]</a>He wrote: “Mr. Schnare's settlement was to get out from under those suits.

The basis for the argument is a mistake on their part … It’s the most inefficient way to resolve a dispute,” he said. According to Schnare, Chris Horner was trying to use the court to get money for himself.“There were mistakes about understanding what our structure was … or what we thought it wasn’t,” he continued. “Chris [Horner] decided he could exploit them, the purpose of which was to solve the personnel problem by dissolving the organization and giving all of the money to Chris Horner and a new organization he was forming.” <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s5" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[5]</a></blockquote>The Times recorded audio of a January 27 meeting between Matthew Hardin, the newly elected chairman of the board, and Schnare. In the recording, a man purported to be Schnare asked Hardin if he wanted a “s—t storm,” a statement interpreted by FMELC as a threat. <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s5" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[5]</a>FMELC said that it might need to close its operations as a result of the dispute. <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s5" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[5]</a><blockquote style="margin: 1.5em 30px;">“Schnare threatens and is attempting to saddle Free Market with further financial consequences of his behavior, in furtherance of his express threats to drain Free Market’s assets if interested parties did not agree to his demands,” the court filing reads. “Schnare’s multiple errors and mistakes, to which he has admitted, have caused Free Market irreparable harm in that it may no longer fulfill its mission and must be dissolved as a result. Schnare’s continuing behavior is causing Free Market further and continuing repetitional and financial harms and is placing the organization at risk.”</blockquote>April 24, 2018The Free Market Environmental Clinic filed a complaint against <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/david-schnare" target="blank" style="text-decoration-line: none;">David Schnare</a>, the group's chair, after he spent time working in a senior EPA position.  FME Law contended Schnare had improperly obtained the group's tax-exempt status by misrepresenting its structure. <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/ex-epa-officials-legal-advocacy-outfit-embroiled-in-vicious-leadership-struggle" target="blank" style="text-decoration-line: none;">The Daily Beast </a>reported the troubles began when Schnare took a leave of absence from the group in January 2017 and installed fellow attorney Chaim Mandelbaum as FME Law's executive director. <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a>Schnare told colleagues he expected to spend three or four years working with the EPA. He withdrew from day-to-date operations.<a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a>In late 2017, a new board with incoming chairman Matthew Hardin asked to review the group's finances. Mandelbaum initially proved a bullet list of assets and liabilities, but resisted providing more information.<a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a>Schnare admitted the reason for resistance in an email: “It appears I made some significant errors when preparing the by-laws and related papers for FME Law.” <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a>One of those errors resulted in FME Law becoming legally paralyzed. When the outside law firm Gross & Romanick was consulted to sort out the issue, they concluded that “As currently organized, FME cannot act.” <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a>“The board of directors is not properly constituted to manage a [professional limited liability corporation]” they concluded in a January 2018 memo. Schnare claimed that conclusion was based on incomplete documentation. <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a>The outside law firm also concluded that Schnare had made misstatements in the group's application for 501(c)(3) nonprofit status, which would make it more difficult to resolve the issues in corporate structure. If a court-appointed receiver were brought on to address the issues, they would be legally required to report the issues to the IRS. Schnare claimed he had already informed the IRS of the underlying issues. <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a>“If the IRS were to investigate and rule that tax exempt status was improperly obtained, FME would likely be forced to disgorge any monies raised and any contributors would have to amend their personal tax returns to reflect donations to a nonexempt entity,” Gross & Romanick had warned. “In such a scenario, it is likely that the members of the board would have some exposure for misrepresenting the status of the organization.”<a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a>A legal complaint by FME Law alleged that Schnare began requesting “a payout” in the range of $280,000 to “keep things quiet” around the legal issues created in the initial 2011 tax filing. Schnare claimed that the money was to fulfill contractual obligations, and was not hush money. <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a>FME Law's complaint further alleged Schnare had threatened to go to the authorities. In a January 27 email to Chris Horner, Schnare wrote: <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a><blockquote style="margin: 1.5em 30px;">“Things are getting out of hand. It is in no one’s interest to end up in court, especially yours as it would be discovered that you engaged in fundraising without FME Law or yourself being registered to do so, placing you subject to criminal penalties.”</blockquote>In a meeting that same day, Schnare suggested the Democratic attorney general of Virginia would be interested to investigate the group. Schnare denied his former colleagues' allegations that his statements had been threats: <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a><blockquote style="margin: 1.5em 30px;">“I have no idea how thin their skin is. There were no threats, absolutely none.”</blockquote>Regarding allegations, including that he had misrepresented the group's nonprofit states, extracted funds for himself and a partner, and the threat of reporting FME Law, Schnare told The Daily Beast: <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s12" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[12]</a><blockquote style="margin: 1.5em 30px;">“The arguments aren’t grounded in facts,” Schnare told The Daily Beast in an interview. “It’s all based on incorrect data.” He described the situation as “like a bad divorce.”</blockquote>July 27, 2016The Free Market Environmental Law Clinic<a href="http://climatecasechart.com/case/free-market-environmental-law-clinic-v-rhode-island-department-of-the-attorney-general/" rel="nofollow" target="blank" style="text-decoration-line: none;"> filed a complaint</a> against the Rhode Island Department of the Attorney General demanding the release of additional climate-change-related emails. <a href="http://blogs2.law.columbia.edu/climate-change-litigation/wp-content/uploads/sites/16/case-documents/2016/20160727_docket-na_complaint.pdf" rel="nofollow" target="blank" style="text-decoration-line: none;">According to the complaint</a>, FMELC had previously demanded records and had received all but 21 that were withheld or partially redacted, citing exemptions to the Access to Public Records Act. <a href="https://www.desmogblog.com/free-market-environmental-law-clinic#s13" style="text-decoration-line: none;">[13]</a>April 11, 2014The Free Market Environmental Law Clinic<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20161021130951/http://fmelawclinic.org/?page_id=66" target="blank" style="text-decoration-line: none;"> filed a lawsuit on behalf of energy traders STS Energy Partners LP (STS Energy)</a> against the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).

</div><div><div> Dana Drugmand</div><div>
</div><div>Opponents of a regional proposal to curb transportation sector emissions in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic are using a number of deceptive tactics to attack and criticize the Transportation and Climate Initiative. Groups tied to the oil industry have pointed to misleading studies, deployed questionable public opinion polling and circulated an open letter in opposition.</div><div>
</div><div>In Virginia, a conservative think tank is now touting a biased analysis, dismissed by critics as misleading "scare tactics," authored by anti-environmental attorney David Schnare, that questions Virginia's legal authority to participate in the regional program.</div><div>
</div><div>The Transportation and Climate Initiative aims to reduce carbon emissions from on-road vehicles by up to 25 percent over 10 years through a cap-and-invest model, whereby fuel suppliers and distributors would purchase allowances allocated under the cap, and proceeds would be invested into clean transportation initiatives. The program is modeled after the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative for the power sector, which is expected to result in CO2 emission reductions of 45 percent below 2005 levels by this year. But critics of the TCI proposal, many of whom also opposed RGGI, claim that it will do little to cut emissions and is just a scheme to raise gas prices, equivalent to a gas tax.</div><div>
</div><div>According to a legal analysis on Virginia's participation in the program, published by the Thomas Jefferson Institute for Public Policy, "TCI proposes rationing gasoline and diesel fuel sales and initiating a per gallon gas tax hike." David Schnare, who wrote the analysis, claims that the program would impose not a fee but a tax and therefore requires authorization by the state legislature. Virginia's governor, Schnare says, does not have unilateral authority to join TCI. Schnare also threatens to sue should Virginia attempt to join TCI without authorization by the legislature.</div><div>
</div><div>"We hope the Governor simply chooses to withdraw," Schnare said. "But any effort to impose TCI unilaterally without the General Assembly will certainly be met with appropriate legal action."</div><div>
</div><div>"Nothing in the TCI program would ration gasoline and motor fuels. TCI would simply put a limit on climate pollution," said Mark Kresowik, eastern region deputy director of the Sierra Club's Beyond Coal campaign, emphasizing that TCI is not a tax by any legal standard.</div><div>
</div><div>David Schnare's Long History Attacking Climate Science and Defending Fossil Fuel Interests</div><div>
</div><div>Schnare is currently the Director of the Center for Environmental Stewardship at the Thomas Jefferson Institute, and both he and TJI are part of a larger network linked with fossil fuel interests that work against climate and environmental protection policies.</div><div>
</div><div>The Thomas Jefferson Institute for Public Policy is a member of the State Policy Network, a Koch-backed web of right-wing think tanks promoting climate science denial and other policy positions that benefit corporate donors. The Jefferson Institute has received funding from Donors Capital Fund ($214,450) and Donors Trust ($5,000), anonymous funding vehicles supporting a number of organizations that promote conservative and free enterprise interests. As DeSmog has noted, "the groups and projects given grants from DCF and DT are among the most active in questioning the link between fossil fuel emissions and climate change and blocking attempts to legislate against greenhouse gas emissions." The Jefferson Institute is one such group, and was called out by name by Senate Democrats in 2016 in a series of speeches denouncing climate change denial from 32 organizations with links to fossil-fuel interests.</div><div>
</div><div>Schnare is a former EPA scientist and attorney and initially was a member of President Trump's EPA transition team. He is affiliated with climate denial groups like the Heartland Institute, and was a speaker at the 2017 Heartland Institute "America First Energy Conference," where he discussed how to challenge the EPA's 2009 endangerment finding that serves as the basis for regulating greenhouse gas emissions.</div><div>
</div><div>Schnare has a history of harassing climate scientists by suing universities to get access to the scientists' emails. In 2011, he unsuccessfully sued the University of Virginia to try to obtain Michael Mann's emails. As DeSmog previously reported, Schnare was forced to pay out $630,000 from a dark money group he co-founded with Christopher Horner, the Free Market Environmental Law Clinic. The payout resulted from a heated legal dispute in which Schnare is alleged to have used FMELC as his personal piggy bank.</div><div>
</div><div>Schnare's Reports Use Disinformation as “Scare Tactics”</div><div>
</div><div>Given this background, it is not surprising that Schnare and the Thomas Jefferson Institute are railing against the proposed Transportation and Climate Initiative. TJI and Schnare have published several misleading analyses of the program claiming it is a "carbon car tax" and would be "all pain and no gain," claims that are simply untrue. The latest legal analysis is a continuation of Schnare making these unfounded arguments. For example, Schnare's claim that TCI "proposes rationing gasoline and diesel fuel sales" is blatantly false, as sources familiar with the program told DeSmog.</div><div>
</div><div>"This is a pollution reduction program," said Bruce Ho, senior advocate in the climate and clean energy program at the Natural Resources Defense Council. "The type of policy [Schnare and TJI] are describing in their paper is not the policy that states are actually proposing."</div><div>
</div><div>"The oil industry and its allies are going heavy on the scare tactics right now," added Morgan Butler, senior attorney at the Southern Environmental Law Center. "TCI is not being designed to ration gas, but rather to help move us beyond it by investing revenues from the program in making cleaner and healthier transportation options more available to everyone."</div><div>
</div><div>Schnare's claim that Virginia's governor cannot unilaterally join TCI is also not accurate. As Kresowik explained, the governor does have authority to sign on to an agreement or memorandum of understanding (MOU), and then the legislature would have to act to implement the program in the state.</div><div>
</div><div>"The governor can absolutely sign the memorandum of understanding and move forward with the other states," Kresowik said.</div><div>
</div><div>"The hand waving in this paper that Virginia is doing something that's not allowed is just wrong," added Ho. "Neither Virginia nor any other TCI jurisdiction has proposed skirting those legal requirements. They've been very upfront that they are going to go through all of the legally required processes within states."</div><div>
</div><div>Ho said that Schnare's entire analysis is disingenuous, as it mischaracterizes what the TCI program is actually proposing. "It's a clear case of fear-mongering, setting up a straw man argument that is just not reflective of reality," he said.</div><div>
</div><div>Schnare's case against TCI runs counter to even oil giant BP's recent endorsement of the program. BP America Chairman and President Susain Dio, in a piece published last week in the Richmond Times-Dispatch, urged Virginia Governor Ralph Northam and the General Assembly to move forward with both TCI and RGGI. "While a national carbon pricing program would be the gold standard, state and regional plans can play a critical role now," Dio writes. "And we can't wait." BP's support of TCI falls inline with the company's recent announcement that it will no longer lobby against policies that regulate or limit carbon pollution. Though the sincerity of BP's statements are not yet clear, the company's surprise public support of TCI indirectly rebuts and counters both pieces of Schnare's flawed analysis.</div><div>

The American Tradition Institute is a 501(c) (3) organization dedicated to the

advancement of rational, free-market solutions to America's land, energy, and environmental

challenges. It has members throughout the nation, including in Virginia. The Institute and its

Law Center were formed to find and challenge at law governmental actions that violate the core

principles of good science, honest government and the rights of citizens and man. </div><div>
</div><div>See, Schnare

Decl. at ¶9.

The American Tradition Institute has no central offices. Like many national

public interest policy and law institutes, its staff works from locations throughout the nation.

The hub of its environmental law activities are in Burke, Virginia. The mailing address of the

Environmental Law Center is 9033 Brook Ford Road, Burke, Virginia 22015. ATI and its

Environmental Law Center litigates matters on behalf of its members where those members

could otherwise assert their own rights, as in this case. Id at ¶ 10.

Landon Huffman is a member of the American Tradition Institute who supports

and shares the ATI’s purposes. See Huffman Decl. at ¶ 7.

6. </div><div>
</div><div>In November 2006 and May 2007 Mr. Huffman participated in human

experimentation conducted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of the kind at

issue in this matter. Id at ¶ 2.

He received a consent form that did not explain that he would be exposed to

something that the EPA claims to be lethal. Nor was he ever informed that human

experimentation was only supposed to be done in a manner that would potentially and directly

benefit those subjected to human experimentation. Id at ¶ 3.

He was lead to believe that the benefit of the experiment would be to help people

with asthma, something from which he suffers. He was not informed that the pollution EPA was

forcing into his lungs could actually cause him to have an asthma attack. Nor was he ever given

anything from EPA that would possibly relieve his asthma. Id at ¶ 4.

9. </div><div>
</div><div>Since learning that the EPA considers the gases to which he was exposed were

lethal, he has been distraught and experienced emotional distress, such as a fear of becoming ill

or dying. His health is of utmost importance to him and he is disturbed by the fact that because

Verified Complaint 4

of his participation in EPA’s human experimentation, his health is in greater jeopardy than when

he voluntarily agreed to participate in those studies. As a result of those studies, he is distressed

that he may not be able to provide for his wife and family in the short-term as well as long-term.

Id at ¶ 5.

He is also distressed that others may suffer the way he does if they participate in

ongoing studies. He believes no one should be falsely and unknowingly exposed to a lethal gas

and only by stopping this human experimentation will he be relieved of his continuing concern

that others not suffer what he now does. Id at ¶ 6.

Steven J. Milloy is a member of the American Tradition Institute who supports

and shares the ATI’s purposes. See Milloy Decl. at ¶ 7.

One of the great horrors Mr. Milloy and his family suffer is the memory of the

incarceration of Mr. Milloy’s uncle, Zoran Galkanovic, at the Mauthausen concentration camp.

Upon threat of death, Mr. Galkanovic was forced to rise each morning and identify those

individuals at the concentration camp too ill to work, knowing they would subsequently be

executed. Id at ¶ 2.

German physicians conducted large-scale human experimentation at the

Mauthausen concentration camp. "German doctors subjected Mauthausen prisoners to

pseudoscientific medical experiments, including testing levels of testosterone, experimenting

with delousing chemicals, medicines for tuberculosis, and nutrition experiments. Camp physician

Hermann Richter surgically removed significant organs--e.g., stomach, liver, or kidneys--from

living prisoners solely in order to determine how long a prisoner could survive without the organ

in question. Eduard Krebsbach, the executive camp doctor between autumn 1941 and autumn

194 3, killed an undetermined number of prisoners by injecting phenol directly into their hearts."

September 11, 2012. "It was behind the gray stone walls of Mauthausen, in his native Austria,

that Dr. [Aribert] Heim committed the atrocities against hundreds of Jews and others that earned

him the nickname Dr. Death and his status as the most wanted Nazi war criminal still believed by

the Simon Wiesenthal Center to be at large. Dr. Heim was accused of performing operations on

prisoners without anesthesia; removing organs from healthy inmates, then leaving them to die on

the operating table; injecting poison, including gasoline, into the hearts of others; and taking the

skull of at least one victim as a souvenir. See, New York Times, "Uncovering Lost Path of the

Most Wanted Nazi," February 4, 2009. Id at ¶3.

Because of the inhumanity forced on Mr. Galkanovic, Mr. Milloy has accepted as

a family responsibility the fight against any government who subjects its citizens to inhumane

treatment. Id at ¶ 4. He is deeply aggrieved by the kind of human experimentation being

conducted by the U.S. EPA and will not be relieved until it stops. Id at ¶ 5.

After learning of how the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was

risking the lives and health of human study subjects and was failing to honestly represent the

nature of the human experimentation that is the subject of the instant matter, Mr. Milloy was

appalled by this inhumanity. Id at ¶ 4.

Mr. Milloy has dedicated a majority of his current work effort to expose and stop

the EPA's improper, unethical and illegal human experimentation. Mr. Milloy is deeply

aggrieved by the kind of human experimentation being conducted by the U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency and will not be relieved until it stops. Id at ¶ 4.

Mr. Milloy owns and maintains two websites dedicated to exposing government

excess and dishonest science. Since 1996, JunkScience.com (http://www.junkscience.com) has

been dedicated to exposing the abuse of science by special interests, including the EPA. Since

September 2012, EPAHumanTesting.com (http://www.epahumantesting.com) has focused on

exposing EPA's unlawful and immoral failure to protect human study subjects. These efforts

reflect Mr. Milloy’s dedication to ensuring honest, ethical government, especially in cases where

the government engages in science and human experimentation. Id at ¶ 6.

David Schnare is a member of the American Tradition Institute who supports and

shares the ATI’s purposes. See Schnare Decl. at ¶ 9.

Dr. Schnare’s parents selected his name, David, to honor the last male relative to

die before his birth. That man’s name was David Steiner, a Jew who died in Buchenwald

concentration camp on May 3, 1945, 21 days after the camp was liberated. Tattooed on his body

was the number 59059. See, http://www.buchenwald.de/totenbuch/. Id at ¶ 2.

German physicians conducted large-scale human experimentation at Buchenwald.

Some 729 inmates were used as test subjects, of whom 154 died. This human experimentation

included determining the dose of a poison necessary to cause death. See, Spitz, Vivien, Doctors

from hell: the horrific account of Nazi experiments on humans, Sentient Publications, Boulder,

CO ISBN 1-59181-032-9 (2005).

Dr. Schnare more than abhors current governmental experimentation on humans

for the purposes of determining the effect of poisons. It is not only that such activity dishonors

those who should have been the last to have suffered in such a manner, it sickens and angers him.

It causes him to stand up for those who could not and cannot. Dr. Schnare does not hold the

name David as a whim or merely as a naming tradition. He views his name as an honor to one

who did not survive the horrors of a government utterly without ethics. He believes he can do no

Verified Complaint 7

less than rise in opposition to any government who would experiment on subjects without their

well-informed willingness, and where they have they do not have the opportunity to personally

benefit from such an experiment. Schnare Decl. at ¶ 4.

Dr. Schnare was employed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

for 33 years, first as a scientist and policy analyst, finally as an enforcement attorney. In the last

years with the Agency, he realized that EPA had abandoned much of the even-handed, sciencebased approach to protection of human health and the environment which marked its early years

and left the Agency, in part, because senior appointees and employees had rejected the core

values held by honest scientists and civil servants. When he learned of the human

experimentation at issue in this case, he realized a duty to challenge EPA’s misanthropic

activities, if for no other reason than to preserve his own legacy of having worked assiduously on

behalf of public health. Id at ¶ 5.

The University of North Carolina (UNC) awarded Dr. Schnare a Doctor of

Philosophy in Environmental Management and its School of Public Health awarded him a

Master of Science in Public Health. During his graduate matriculation at UNC, he served on the

Dean’s Cabinet, the advisory and decision-making body assisting the Dean of the School of

Public Health. Among the many subjects addressed during his tenure on the Cabinet, the Dean

and Faculty took special interest in ensuring the faculty fully complied with all requirements

mandated by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) and federal and state statutes and rules

dealing with human experimentation. Id at ¶ 6.

After learning of how EPA failed to honestly represent the nature of the human

experimentation that is the subject of the instant matter, he was appalled that the UNC

Biomedical IRB review process failed to conduct the kind of independent review necessary to

Verified Complaint 8

ensure the representations by EPA were not only true but complete and fully reflected EPA’s

knowledge about the poisons with which they intended to force into the lungs of unsuspecting

and inadequately informed human subjects. As an alumnus of the University, he is deeply upset

at this failure and it adds to his great angst and the emotional harm he suffers from the on-going

illegal human experimentation. Id at ¶ 7.

The relief sought in the instant matter will significantly ameliorate his suffering

and will help return honor to the memory of David Steiner and all those who died at the hands of

the “Doctors from hell.” Id at ¶ 8.

B. Defendants

Defendant United States Environmental Protection Agency is the federal agency

responsible for conducting experiments on humans that involved exposing those persons to toxic

substances the Agency believes will cause death and which the Agency therefore regulates under

the auspices of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S. C. Chapter 85.

Defendant Lisa P. Jackson is the Administrator of the United States

Environmental Protection Agency and, as such, is charged with the supervision and management

of all decisions and actions of the agency, including those that authorized human

experimentation. She is sued in her official capacity only.

Wayne Cascio, Martha Sue Carraway, Andrew J. Ghio, Jon R. Sobus, Joachim D.

Pleil and Michael C. Madden are self-identified by as EPA employees subject to oversight and

management control by Defendant Lisa P. Jackson and are the EPA employees who personally

ordered human subjects be placed into a gas chamber and exposed to a lethal gas.1
