Republican Arizona Lawmaker To Hold Hearing On 'Chemtrails'

Catherine Thompson – June 23, 2014, 10:46 AM EDT

An Arizona lawmaker plans to entertain so-called "chemtrail" conspiracy theories at a public hearing this week.

State Sen. Kelli Ward (R) told the Havasu News that she's heard from some constituents who were concerned about contrails from airplanes having an effect on both the mercury levels in their bloodstream and on the local weather.

"I have gotten a lot of communications from people who are concerned and there has been a sense that no one has been doing anything for them to address those concerns,” she told the Havasu News. “I can’t do field tests on the water, but I can connect them to the people who do.”

Those who ascribe to the chemtrail conspiracy theory believe the wispy clouds that trail behind flying jets, which are really just frozen water vapor, are chemical agents sprayed deliberately by the government to control the weather or cause health problems in the population.

who's a true believer in ALL that stuff. Mercury, fluoride is a deadly poison, chemtrails and much much more. Because I love him, I''m ashamed to say that I've enabled him too often.
