External Meeting Request Form.docx
Ryan, I left a voicemail for you today to check on the meeting request for Andrew Littlefair to meet with Administrator Pruitt. I have attached the original meeting request for Andrew that was sent in to Madeline Morris, with a copy to you, on July 20th.
In summary, Andrew Littlefair, the President and CEO of Clean Energy Fuels, will make the case that a more robust commitment by the Trump Administration to the natural gas vehicle (NGV) industry can create tens of thousands of new U.S. jobs, and will make our country safer and enhance our national security.
This can be accomplished through review and rescinding of Obama-era regulations that disadvantage the natural gas vehicle industry. Given the technological advances of NGVs, especially heavy-duty (HD) trucks, the bias toward EVs is unfair and is unjustified. The advantages of NGVs in non-attainment areas helps to achieve goals of the Clean Air Act due to the use of Near Zero emissions natural gas engines.
I hope the Administrator's schedule will permit him to meet with Andrew Littlefair. I think it would be time well spent.
I was with Senator Inhofe and Luke tonight. They said everyone had a great time at the Dove hunt this weekend in Oklahoma. I am sorry to have missed you. It sounded like a lot of fun.
Best. Scott
