CEI Report Debunks Myths Advanced by Special Interest Supporters of Kigali Amendment

Special interests supporting the Kigali Amendment, which would ban refrigerants widely-used by consumers with air conditioning and businesses that rely on air conditioning and refrigerators, are spreading false claims that must be scrutinized, according to a new report out today by Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI) Senior Fellow Ben Lieberman. Supporters of the Kigali Amendment include some manufacturers of Kigali-compliant refrigerants and equipment and environmental activists and they are making demonstrably false claims to argue in favor of the White House submitting the amendment to the U.S. Senate for ratification.
