Senate and House Republicans sent a letter Tuesday to The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) pressing them over allegations that the Biden Administration has been juking statistics related to climate change with temperature monitoring stations.

The Daily Caller first obtained a copy of the letter, which was spearheaded by Utah Sen. Mike Lee.
