Trump Nominates Coal Lobbyist to Be No. 2 at EPA
October 5, 2017 at 9:33 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard
President Trump nominated Andrew Wheeler, a coal lobbyist with links to outspoken deniers of established science on climate change, to help lead the Environmental Protection Agency, the New York Times reports.
The nomination comes at a critical moment for the E.P.A. as the agency prepares to repeal a sweeping climate change regulation known as the Clean Power Plan.
