He should have been Gov of NY instead of that hockey puck Hochel.  Good guy.  Please gut the EPA.

Seems to me that Zeldin is an excellent choice for the EPA.

It is an honor to join President Trump’s Cabinet as EPA Administrator.

We will restore US energy dominance, revitalize our auto industry to bring back American jobs, and make the US the global leader of AI. We will do so while protecting access to clean air and water.
