The Tennessee Senate has passed a bill targeting “chemtrails.”

SB 2691/HB 2063, sponsored by Rep. Monty Fritts, R-Kingston, and Sen. Steve Southerland, R-Morristown, passed in the Senate on Monday. The bill has yet to advance in the House.

The bill claims it is “documented the federal government or other entities acting on the federal government’s behalf or at the federal government’s request may conduct geoengineering experiments by intentionally dispersing chemicals into the atmosphere, and those activities may occur within the State of Tennessee,” according to the bill.

The legislation would ban the practice in Tennessee.

“The intentional injection, release, or dispersion, by any means, of chemicals, chemical compounds, substances, or apparatus within the borders of this state into the atmosphere with the express purpose of affecting temperature, weather, or the intensity of the sunlight is prohibited,” the bill reads.

The bill is scheduled to go to the House Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee on Wednesday.

    Clickbait headline.

    Chemtrails aren’t mentioned anywhere in the bill. They’re banning solar geoengineering tests in the state. Which is at least something that some companies are studying, even though the tech doesn’t exist yet.
