Is Congressperson Becca Balint a Hypocrite? Or just not paying attention? I want U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders and U.S. Senator Peter Welch and President Donald Trump and Elon Musk and U.S. Congressperson Becca Balint to PAY ATTENTION RIGHT NOW!
Let’s take a look at this political issue of hypocrisy!
” Records highlighted by VTDigger indicate Balint’s leadership PAC accepted over $12,000 in corporate PAC money during the 2024 cycle, which included funds from SpaceX.” (Source: VTdigger)
“U.S. Representative Becca Balint (D-VT) champions aggressive federal climate action, environmental justice, and local ecological resilience, earning a stellar lifetime score from major conservation organizations.” (Source: https://balint.house.gov/issues/)
Now, what does SpaceX do? They launch rockets to place satellites into low earth orbits.
So, what is the problem?

” The fiery re-entry of even one Gen1 Starlink satellite produces about 30 kilograms of aluminum oxide vapor, a compound that erodes the ozone layer. A new study finds these oxides have increased 8-fold between 2016 and 2022, and the Great Re-entry Event increases this pollution even more. (Gen 1 Starlink hardware and its matching constellation satellites were completely developed and manufactured in-house by SpaceX)
To put this into perspective: Before the first Starlink launches began in 2019, only about 40 to 50 satellites re-entered per year. SpaceX just brought down ten years’ worth in only six months, adding an estimated 15,000 kilograms of aluminum oxide to the upper atmosphere.”
…”NOAA scientists suggests that aluminum-rich space dust could heat the stratosphere and mesosphere by up to 1.5°C, and slow the southern polar vortex, potentially altering global weather patterns.”
Now, I only got one vote in the Vermont primary election, my own. But because I love our Mother Earth, and I believe I am the best candidate, even though I couldn’t go out and get petition signatures to get on the ballot due to arthritis, and no one would help me, and I am kicked out of most social media….well, so, I am asking you for write-in votes for the Nov. 3, 2026 general election in Vermont because I think Congressperson Becca Balint is not solving our problems. There are plenty of other choices, but I don’t think Gerald Malloy, Republican, is the answer to loving Mother Earth, and I don’t think Suzanne Seymore, Independent, is the answer, and then there are 3 more independent candidates whose names will be on the ballot: Adam Ortiz, Independent, who ran in 2024 and is trying again. Phoenix K. Altair, (who? couldn’t find info, seems to be living out-of-state) Independent, and Ryan P. Walton (huh? no picture of this alleged person on website) Independent. So, there will be 6 names on the ballot for Representative to Congress, and I’m still telling you I’m the best candidate, even though I’m not on the ballot. In fact, this year, I’m already starting to see other write-in candidates speak up. People are just not satisfied with the selection.
