Oklahoma Secretary of Ag Jim Reese Calls Attorney General Scott Pruitt a Great Selection to be Donald Trump's Administrator of the EPA

Wed, 14 Dec 2016 11:32:31 CST

Oklahoma Secretary of Ag Jim Reese Calls Attorney General Scott Pruitt a Great Selection to be Donald Trump's Administrator of the EPA Oklahoma Secretary of Agriculture Jim Reese today issued the following statement after President-elect Donald Trump recently nominated Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt to lead the Environmental Protection Agency:



"Scott Pruitt is a great selection to be administrator of EPA. The ultra-green environmental groups are predicting Armageddon over his nomination. It won't be Armageddon, but a major dust up would be great. The EPA has been running over Congress, cities and towns, businesses, private landowners and even the courts for many years.    The proposed Waters of the US (WOTUS) is the best example of EPA somewhat apologizing for running over everyone, but continuing to run over us. Finally a court stopped them.



"Environmentalists didn't need Congress, the President, or even promulgated rules. They would just sue the EPA "sue and settle" and get their way. Not every environmental improvement was conceived at EPA HQ. Many of our environmental improvements are state or locally driven. We have more EPA success stories, removing phosphorus and nutrients from streams more than any other state.



"We need the EPA. They have assisted Oklahoma and America in improving and protecting our air, water and land. Scott Pruitt will continue EPA's efforts to protect our environment, but with respect towards land owners, taxpayers, municipalities, businesses, and Congress."
