STARTING NOW: I’m leading @AppropsDems' hearing with @EPAScottPruitt. You can follow along to our questions and his testimony here → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anOhiBdIOTk … #PollutingPruitt
Because of @EPAScottPruitt’s policies, @realDonaldTrump’s first year in office has damaged our environment, public health & natural resources. But that is not my only concern with your performance as EPA Administrator. #PollutingPruitt
.@EPAScottPruitt: you have violated the public trust by abusing EPA resources & taxpayer dollars. You have displayed a disregard for the ethical standards to which all public officials should adhere. #PollutingPruitt
You are letting the American people down. Your actions are distracting the EPA from its core mission & have created a toxic work environment that has demoralized your staff. #PollutingPruitt
As just one example of your poor judgment, your use of $43,000 to construct a phone booth in your office was not just unethical and wasteful, but actually illegal. #PollutingPruitt
Beyond your many ethical lapses, I am also concerned about your regulatory rollbacks. Thankfully, because of your substandard work, many of these have already been struck down in court. #PollutingPruitt
.@EPAScottPruitt: Let me remind you the law requires that the delay of a regulation or issuance of a new rule be based on solid science. You cannot just ignore the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act or other bedrock environmental laws. #PollutingPruitt
Your denial of climate science is also profoundly disturbing. Withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement & watering down fuel efficiency standards harms the health of our children & grandchildren. #PollutingPruitt
Rolling back regulations that limit emissions will mean more cases of asthma in children. Keeping harmful pesticides on the market will damage children’s brain development. #PollutingPruitt
.@EPAScottPruitt: Your approach is bad for the environment, bad for public health & bad for business. You are failing all Americans with your disregard for the EPA’s job to protect human health and the environment. #PollutingPruitt
No matter what @EPAScottPruitt does to prioritize the profits of big fossil fuel & chemical corporations, Congress must ensure that the air we breathe & water we drink is safe for the American people. I am committed to working across the aisle to do just that. #PollutingPruitt
