Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt seems to think businesses have guaranteed rights to pollute our air and water.
As Oklahoma's attorney General, Pruitt let chicken processors dump 300,000 tons of waste into an estuary of the Illinois River. Now, President Trump's choice to head the EPA is attacking rules that would reduce carbon and methane, two greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. He's set his sights on a clean water rule imposed in 2015 to clarify which waterways are federally protected to safeguard people from toxic water.
