FYI Sue and Settle has been rescheduled to next week but we are still going to use this. Also, do you have a photo of the Oklahoma guys with Pruitt? We'd love to get it signed for them but your photog has it.

Tate -
Here is an AGC quote for you to use in EPA's press statement tomorrow re: Sue and Settle.
"It is encouraging to see the administration announce that it will no longer surrender to litigious groups abusing the legal process to impose new, unworkable burdens on the business community," said Stephen E. Sandherr, the chief executive officer of the Associated General Contractors of America. "By putting an end to back room agreements, the administrator is making sure that all affected parties have an opportunity to contribute to the discussion about measures needed to protect our environment."
In addition, AGC has written its own supporting statement that we will issue tomorrow after the Administrator makes his announcement. Can someone on your end let us know when that happens?
Thanks very much. And thanks again for everything today. (Will get you those addresses...)
Best regards,
Leah

Regarding the Sue and Settle announcement, just to clarify, do you want a quote from AGC that you, EPA, can include in what the agency sends out? Or do you want AGC to have a statement of support ready to send out to the press At the same time that EPA makes its announcement? My press person has drafted an AGC statement of support... With a quote from our CEO and the AGC president. (Not exactly what I asked him to do.)
