探花精选 Prepares for Long Road Ahead of Cleaning Up Pruitt鈥檚 Messes

Scott Pruitt鈥檚 tenure was full of corruption and pollution. Now that he鈥檚 gone, the people and birds of the United States deserve a trustworthy EPA Administrator.

WASHINGTON鈥斺淪tepping down is the best decision Scott Pruitt has made while at the EPA,鈥 said David Yarnold (), 探花精选鈥檚 president and CEO, in response to Scott Pruitt鈥檚 resignation as EPA Administrator.

鈥淪cott Pruitt failed at this job because he didn鈥檛 know the difference between right and wrong. It鈥檚 wrong to lie and steal and pollute the waters and lands we protect for our children. It鈥檚 right to live by the truth and to treasure nature鈥檚 gifts. America deserves an EPA Administrator who holds these principles in their soul.鈥
