Congress: We Demand an EPA that Protects Our Environment
Stop Myron Ebell, an unqualified pawn of the business tycoons, from leading the EPA and putting our health and our country at risk.
Why is this important?
Remember the environmental disasters caused by DDT, Exxon Valdez, and hexavalent chromium uncovered by Erin Brokovich? American businesses have shown us time and again the low priority they place on the environment and public health. We need regulations to protect us and the businesses from themselves, but Scott Pruitt, President-elect Trump's appointee to lead the EPA, and Myron Ebell, leader of the EPA transition team, are not the men for this job. They have made their careers denying the legitimacy of environmental concerns, fighting so that business tycoons can fatten their wallets while the public is left to breathe polluted air and drink contaminated water. Republican or Democrat, conservative or liberal, we must all stand together and refuse to watch silently as our health is jeopardized and our environment is destroyed.
