EPA enforcement chief defends agency’s recordIt is “absolutely not true” that the agency is soft on polluters, says EPA’s enforcement chief Susan Bodine. The Republi-cons and special interest are in their sound proof booth To dismantle the EPA, while they pay to play and that’s the truth. Richard Nixon started the EPA, because the environment was a sewer Now action on pollution, pesticides and climate change, is just a rumor. Pollution. “Those murdering raping foreigners haven’t stolen an environment on Our watch!!!!”

Will An Appeals Court Make The EPA Ban A Pesticide Linked To Serious Health Risks?EPA scientists recommended a total ban on the pesticide chlorpyrifos. But in 2017, Trump's EPA administrator at the time decided against that. Now, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals will decide whether to make the agency ban it. We're so behind other countries who have already determined that their citizens' health should come before profit. Let's hope the court gets it. But they just believe both sides of the dangerous chemicals science. tRump’s “EPA” administrators are extremely not qualified for their job description. Compare it to El Chapo heading the DEA. We don’t have an EPA within the tRump administration. It’s only use is for exploiting our environment for financial gain.
