This document is an email forwarding a joint letter from several conservative organizations to Senator Pete Domenici, chairman of the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. The letter expresses concerns about the climate change title in the committee's draft comprehensive energy legislation. Specifically, it opposes provisions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, establish a White House climate change office, and create credits for early emission reductions. The groups argue this would put the U.S. on a path to energy rationing without public debate and create a lobby for mandatory emissions caps.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

Subject: FW: Joint letter on climate title to Chairman Pete Domenici

>Washington, D. C.
> 4th April 2003
> The Honorable Mr. Pete Domenici
> Chairman, Committee on Energy and Natural Resources
> United States Senate
> Washington, D. C. 20510
> Via fax and e-mail
>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
> Dear Chairman Domenici:
> The undersigned organizations write to share our views on the climate
title in the draft comprehensive energy legislation prepared by your
committee> 1> s staff. The draft bill in our view is better in almost
every respect than Senator Daschle> '> s bill passed by the Senate last
year. Unlike that misguided legislation, your committee> '> s draft
contains provisions to allow greater access to domestic energy resources
and to create the conditions necessary for private enterprise to rebuild
and enlarge America> 1> s inadequate energy infrastructure. Nearly as
importantly, the draft does not contain the chief provisions in the
Daschle bill that would limit energy supplies and raise prices; most
especially, it does not contain a Renewable Portfolio Standard for
electricity production.

> Because we share your commitment to policies that will promote
continuing abundant supplies of affordable energy to American consumers
and producers, we were surprised to find that your committee> '> s draft
contains a climate change title. We believe that this title is ill
considered and, if enacted in anything like its present form, its effects
will in the long run overwhelm the many positive elements in the bill. it
would in our view create the institutional and legal framework and the
political incentives necessary eventually to force Kyoto-style energy
rationing on the American people.
> Even more disturbingly to us, it would set us on this path without
engaging in a full national debate over its enormous consequences.
Instead, including this climate title in comprehensive energy legislation
seems to assume that the debate is over, even though that debate has never
occurred. It seems to us that before we settle on the main provisions of
this climate title, we would first have to agree that global warming
alarmism is scientifically warranted, that there are benefits as wells as
costs to these policies, and that it is inevitable we are soon going to be
living in a carbon-constrained world. We question each of these
assumptions.
> We specifically call your attention to three main provisions in the
climate title-1) requiring a national strategy to > "1> stabilize and over
time reduce net U. S. emissions of greenhouse gases> "1> plus annual
reports; 2) reviving the Clinton-Gore Administration> '> s White House
climate czar and bureaucracy; and 3) setting up a program to award credits
for early actions to reduce emissions.
> 1) Directing the executive to produce a national strategy concedes the
global warming debate and puts the U. S. on a dead-end path to future
energy rationing. As the discredited National Assessment demonstrates,
annual reports will be used to promote alarmism and attack government for
not doing enough. And if the strategy> '> s objectives were actually
implemented, the costs would be colossal and the benefits nil.
> 2) Legislating a White House climate czar and office will
institutionalize global warming as a problem, which it means that it will
never go away, even after global warming alarmism has been discredited.
Single mission agencies usually are captured by their clients, become
lobbyists for their issue, and cannot objectively evaluate the costs of
their policies.
> 3) Awarding credits for early actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
will create a powerful big business cartel to lobby for mandatory caps on
emissions. This is because early action credits will not have value until
an emissions cap forces energy users to buy credits.
> We would like to be able to tell you that we are going to be devoting
our time and resources in the months ahead to educating the public on the
many positive elements in your comprehensive energy legislation. Unfo>
rtunately, however, if the bill contains a climate title with these three
provisions from the draft, then we fear that our time and resources will
instead be diverted to exposing the shortcomings of that objectionable
concoction. Thank you for your attention to our concerns.
> Sincerely,
>•Fred Smith, President
