I can set a call anytime that will be good for the Secretary's schedule. Because so many states are in legislative session, Thursdays and Fridays are best (in the afternoon so folks on the west coast can join us). Looking at our network's schedule, the next few weeks are pretty open so we can be flexible if there are a few dates / times that work with his schedule. Thank you!

To expand the call to other key parties 17cv1906 Sierra Club v. EPA ED_001523B_00006751-00009 in the states, I can invite ALEC and RGA to participate. Our three organizations have been on a lot of policy related calls (healthcare and tax reform) together lately. Background on this call: We kicked off this call in December of 2015 with the goal of getting as many states as possible to submit requests to EPA for two-year state plan extensions, but after the SCOTUS stay the call transitioned into getting as many states to stop working on a plan. During session our weekly war room calls quickly became the go-to source for state action and info sharing. We not only have state and national think tank policy experts engaged, but also private industry and attorneys associated with state AG offices. We also deal with RPS mandates, carbon tax and messaging proactive free market solutions. The call is now on a monthly basis and would benefit greatly from receiving a first-hand update on changes we will see at the EPA, plus what support the agency needs during this transition. Look forward to discussing this request. Thank you for your consideration.
