I’m pretty sure that is going to be ignored. My family and I are planning on moving to CT from a red state because of this and other issues that the right wing is messing up (LGBT rights, education, etc).
I do wonder the statistics of people who are leaving red states for blue states. It has to be increasing. At least from personal experience I’m seeing it happen a lot and know people who are fed up and moving. That’s just personal experience, though.
I’m also a climate refugee. The narrative is that people leave Northern states for Southern states, but I think that’s far from the whole picture. Now, I, personally, am an oddball who likes the cold, but it isn’t purely that which is driving me away from the South. It’s also the crazy weather. The tornadoes, the drought, warm weather dominating winter, etc.
I’m utterly baffled by people moving to Florida. I think some of them are going to regret it, as it is increasingly prone to major natural disasters.

The climate is too hot and humid, and its prone to really bad hurricanes. Also, it's become a hotspot for right wing and Evangelical crazies, and it's got a complete monster as its governor, DeSantis.
