Subject: Carper to force White House to renominate White in 2018 By Anthony Adragna 12/19/2017 04:50 PM EOT Sen. Tom Carper, top Democrat on the Environment and Public Works Committee, said today that he will force the Trump administration to renominate Kathleen Elartnett White to run the White House Council on Environmental Quality in 2018. "Unqualified or controversial nominees will not simply be rubber-stamped by the Senate," Carper said in a statement. "Let's start the new year off with a clean slate and allow President Trump the opportunity to nominate a leader for the Council on Environmental Quality who takes environmental laws and public health protections seriously." Senators typically allow nominees not confirmed by the end of the first year of a congressional term to remain pending without forcing them to be renominated. But Carper said White's controversial views on climate change and other environmental matters means she shouldn't be afforded that courtesy. That comes as the first Republican senator expressed unease with White's nomination. Sen. Susan Collins told POLITICO she had viewed a clip of her confirmation hearing that "raised a lot of issues in my mind" but said she's not examined her record in-depth. WHAT'S NEXT: Carper said he plans to object to any unanimous consent motions that would keep White's nomination pending after Congress adjourns for the year. That would force the White House to resubmit the nomination in 2018.
