I just think that every indication we have is that you really should resign and you are undeserving of the public trust.
Clearly, you do not believe in EPA's mission and appear to have forgotten that you are here to serve all the American people.
The evidence is clear: you have failed as a steward of American taxpayer dollars and our environment.
I am very concerned by this troubling pattern of retaliation which is not only potentially illegal but is also creating a hostile environment.
Your conduct as Administrator has demonstrated a lack of respect for American taxpayers and the Agency you were appointed to lead.
Again, Mr. Pruitt, your deregulatory agenda costs lives, real people with names, with brothers, with mothers.
Despite all your scandals, the White House says you have the President's support because you are implementing his deregulatory agenda, but I think that agenda has real costs.
Projects like this Monmouth County reliability project are more about the rate of return for shareholders than reliability for consumers.
There are certainly other ways to address reliability than just gold-plating the transmission system.
For years I've expressed concern with the process FERC uses to review pipeline applications.
This proposed rule is a threat to competitive electricity markets and would have led to higher energy prices for consumers.

Net neutrality advocates have spoken loud and clear. We want everyone to have a faster internet, not just the chosen few who can afford to pay extra.
The only ones who want broadband providers to charge money for fast lanes are the broadband providers.

The internet is a powerful engine of economic growth and a potent platform for free speech.
Continued growth of greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector must stop, and fuel economy must improve dramatically.
A policy change that extends the dominance of fossil fuel use in transportation, that slows improvement in vehicle fuel economy standards, or keeps us on a path of increased carbon emissions in the transportation sector is unacceptable.
Some will say that establishing a high-octane fuel standard can serve as an alternative to the current Renewable Fuel Standard.
Responding to the unprecedented level of devastation caused by these storms would have been beyond the capacity of any State, territorial, or local government.
It is time we begin to on finding a common-sense solution for creating a 21st century electric grid for Puerto Rico.
Facebook made itself a powerful tool for things like voter suppression in part by opening its platform to app developers with little or no oversight.
