Trump announced that he will nominate former New York Republican congressman Lee Zeldin to head the Environmental Protection Agency.
“Lee, with a very strong legal background, has been a true fighter for America First policies. He will ensure fair and swift deregulatory decisions that will be enacted in a way to unleash the power of American businesses, while at the same time maintaining the highest environmental standards,” Trump said in a statement.
Zeldin wrote, “It is an honor to join President Trump’s Cabinet as EPA Administrator.”
Zeldin represented New York’s 1st Congressional District, on Long Island, from 2015 to 2023, and he ran for governor in 2022 but was defeated by Gov. Kathy Hochul.
Local Office Address: Washington Washington District of Columbia United States
