"An alliance formed in the wake of Donald Trump’s 2016 election is gearing up to defend the agency if the former president retakes the White House."
"Ex-EPA officials and environmentalists gathered in a living room about a week after President Donald Trump’s inauguration in January 2017 to discuss how they might combat the incoming administration’s agenda.
Worried that Trump and his team were “intent on shredding EPA,” the alumni set up an organization to play defense against the administration’s efforts to roll back agency policies and slash staffing. Throughout the Trump years, the nascent Environmental Protection Network used its connections to distribute information to reporters, Capitol Hill staffers and advocacy organizations about the impacts of the administration’s policies and proposals.
With another possible Trump administration looming, the EPA alumni group is bracing for a rematch."
