He suggested that given the nation's energy abundance, "We should burn abundant, 1ow-cost coal in modern High Effi ci ency Low Emi ssi ons (HELE) ultra-super cri ti cal coal pi ants in the U.S. to supply 1ow-cost, rel iabl e electricity to drive domestic economic growth. The U.S. should simultaneously develop carbon capture technology for future deployment to meani ngfully reduce CO2 emi ssi ons when that technology becomes commercial 1y avai1able. In turn, we should use domesti c natural gas pri marily for heati ng and to provi de industri al/chemi cal feedstock to boost economi c growth whi1e exporti ng surpl us natural gas and oi 1 to improve the U.S. balance of trade and drive global energy domi nance."

A l s o , your col 1eague whose card I didn't g e t , not Sam but the other wo ma n, mentioned that "Mi ke Nasi w a s n 't a great guy to raise. He said Pruitt shouldn't get the jo b." I think she must be mistaken and have confused hi m wi th somebody else and just wanted to cl ear the record. He seems to have been an early and enthusiastic supporter: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/jan/18/scott-pruitt-is-right-for-theepa/
