The quote below is from Senator Lieberman. Clarine is his former chief of staff and works with him at their law firm if you need to confirm with her. I'll send you more in a minute
From: Clarine Nardi Riddle <CNRiddle@kasowitz.com> Date: October 3, 2017 at 5:59:35 PM EDT To: "Wheeler, Andrew R." <AndrewWheeler@FaegreBD.com> Subject: RE: Hope all is well
The Senator said he would say this:
"Andrew was Republican staff director during part of the time I was on the Senate Environment Committee. We worked together on some issues and disagreed on others. He conducted himself in a fair and professional manner. I hope his nomination will receive similarly fair consideration by the Senate."
OK?

Yes, Deputy Administration. And before I worked in the Senate I worked at EPA as a career employee for four years too! Thanks!

Clarine, I hope all is well. I hate to impose on you, but I was just told I will be nominated this week, perhaps as soon as tomorrow. Do you think Senator Lieberman would be willing to go on record and say something like "I worked with Andrew on the 911 air issues, he's professional and deserves fair consideration." I'm not asking for an endorsement but there are so few Democrats left on EPW that I actually worked with.
Senator Carper did say in a trade press article this summer the following, Asked about
17cv1906 Sierra Club v. EPA
ED_001523_00001741 -00002
Wheeler, Carper said: "We know Andrew. On a personal level, we like him. I've not given any thought to his suitability for that job."
I know this is short notice, I just got the call 30 minutes ago, but if there is anything you can do I would appreciate it.
