 Here's How Many People Have Left the EPA Since Scott Pruitt Took Over

The Environmental Protection Agency has shrunk considerably since Scott Pruitt took over as administrator. In fact, the agency is back to President Reagan-era staff levels.

Over 700 EPA personnel have either retired, quit, or taken voluntary buyouts since Pruitt took over, Think Progress found after combing through federal employment statistics. Some are quitting in "disgust."

Keep it going Scott. Your goal should be you turn out the lights when your term ends, or hopefully sooner.

Do you know how difficult it is, to terminate career government employees (not political appointees)?

Part of the discussion about the so called "Deep State," is about how political appointees, have been moved into protected, career positions.

Good.
More than "good".... GREAT!

I hope that an increasing number of them continue to become disgusted enough to quit or transfer out to some other agency where (perhaps) they'll do less damage.

So long.
Thanks for your service, but....
Goodbye!
