Lee Zeldin will SLASH Environmental Protections!!!!!


UGH!!!!!!!! Donald Trump has picked an anti-environment loyalist to head the EPA back in October or  November...I'm now just getting around to being incensed about this nomination in particular.

Lee Zeldin has no environmental history or experience, no qualifications whatsoever, ZERO experience with the environment in any way, shape, or form, and he is simply a "yes man" for Donald Trump, the GD President-elect. Zeldin will YES everything that Donald Trump wants to do, including cutting back on Biden's climate- and air-pollution rulings of the past few years.

Trump and Musk have made it clear that they plan on radically rescinding environmental protections all over the nation, including the extended environmental protections in place in California. Why? Why would someone care so little about the environment? He is a climate change denier of the first order.

It's about money. SURPRISE.
It's about industries that don't want to take expensive efforts to protect our air and water. Trump is siding with the money over the air we breathe and the water we drink.
Zeldin, himself, vowed in 2020 to rescind a fracking ban that the Dems put into place.
According to an article on the NPR website, Trump is quoted to have said that "(Zeldin) will ensure fair and swift deregulatory decisions that will enact in a way to unleash the power of American business."  But we can't breathe the power of American business. 😠

According to Politico.com, Trump actually campaigned and won on his plans to decimate the climate rulings of the Biden-era. For this, I will not forgive his supporters. My own children worry about their futures, about the actual livability of our planet. Their entire generation fears this administration and what they will do to the planet.

"Drill, Baby, Drill."

The press is NOT the FBI. We need the Congressional FBI background checks and vetting for Lee Zeldin. His complete inappropriateness for the role of EPA leader is this side of criminal!

In response to this Zeldin appointment, I have been looking at EarthJustice, a nonprofit public interest organization based in the United States dedicated to litigating environmental issues.
JOIN ME in supporting them! They, EarthJustice, has won 85% of the cases that they've brought against the past Trump administration.

I made my donation to EarthJustice. Will you?
Furthermore I contacted my government official and asked him to encourage all vetting activities for all of the nominees and to vote NO for Lee Zeldin and Kash Patel.

What are your thoughts as you read this?
