The former head of President Donald Trump's transition team at the Environmental Protection Agency said Thursday he expects the new administration to seek significant budget and staff cuts.
Myron Ebell said in an interview with The Associated Press that Trump is likely to seek significant reductions to the agency's workforce — currently about 15,000 employees nationwide.
Ebell, who left the transition team last week, declined to discuss specific numbers of EPA staff that could be targeted for pink slips.
Asked what he would personally like to see, however, Ebell said slashing the agency's size by about half would be a good start.

What about 100%, would be a better start.

".. a Gestapo arm of the Globalist Fascists.."
My thoughts exactly.
There is a role for the agency, but it must be small and well-controlled.
Development would flourish in Maryland if they would do that but they wont because state is controlled by environmentalists.Funny thing the new Delaware gov wants to put in a EPA chief that will end development there also,will be just like Md.
