Scott Pruitt, New Trump EPA Head, Dangerous, Unqualified, Says NY AG

 

Scott Pruitt, who was tapped today by Donald Trump to head the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is “dangerous” and “unqualified” to protect the nation’s air and water, said New York Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman.

In a blistering statement, the state’s top cop said he is “ready to use the full power” of his office to battle Pruitt if he “fails to uphold our nation’s environmental laws.”

Pruitt, a Republican, is currently Attorney General of Oklahoma, where his record on environmental issues, especially climate change, has been abysmal, according to Schneiderman.
