Mullin and others to grill EPA Administrator over budget request

Senate Confirms Biden's Pick to Lead E.P.A. - The New York Times

 

If it’s Tuesday, then EPA Administrator Michael Regan will face some budget questions from Oklahoma Congressman Markwayne Mullin and others on a subcommittee of the House Energy and Commerce Committee.

Rep. Mullin, a Republican, sits on the committee’s Environment and Climate Change Subcommittee and will review Regan’s $11.9 billion budget request during a hearing Tuesday.

The EPA’s budget request includes more money for water grant programs which were part of the Biden administration’s bipartisan infrastructure package last year. Regan is also pushing for environmental law enforcement.
