“Six of Mr. Pruitt’s efforts to delay or roll back Obama-era regulations — on issues including pesticides, lead paint and renewable-fuel requirements — have been struck down by the courts.“ https://t.co/imM6Geteke

For the record: this is because Pruitt and other members of the Trump administration don’t understand that regulatory changes require data and evidence to go into them. You can’t just kill a regulation, you have provide a reason it doesn’t work or is counterproductive. https://t.co/0SgjlKxt7G
