Man hasn't learned anything since the time of King Canute! I guess these boobs think this will prevent The Outer Banks and Cape Hatteras from joining fair Atlantis when they sink below the waves. During the late Eocene when CO2 levels were as high as we are going to run them up by 2100, The Atlantic Shoreline went through places like Charlotte, Richmond and Washington DC.

The measure would prohibit state agencies from using projections of accelerated sea-level rise – based on global warming and the melting of polar ice caps – in drafting coastal development rules, and instead require that they use only historical sea-level-rise data.
You can look at anyone of these stations and one thing is clear, whether it's going or down in some cases it's very steady and predictable rate.
Seems like a common sense action to me because in Wilmington the rate at which is rising is actually decelerating at the moment. Facts people, not sensationalized BS.

As more data are collected at water level stations, the linear mean sea level trends can be recalculated each year. The figure compares linear mean sea level trends and 95% confidence intervals calculated with data beginning from a common year and ending in each year since 2006. The values do not indicate the trend in each year, but the trend of the entire data period up to that year.
