Throughout his time in Congress, Administrator nominee Zeldin presented a balanced and practical approach to tackling key environmental issues while balancing the needs of energy development. His experience working across party lines makes him an ideal candidate to lead the EPA in a manner that fosters both collaboration and innovation. Administrator nominee Zeldin's leadership would bring a fresh perspective to the agency, helping to strengthen the EPA's role in tackling the complex environmental challenges we face. I strongly urge the Senate to advance his nomination swiftly, and we offer our full support for his appointment as EPA Administrator.
