Wicker Questions for Andrew Wheeler Hi Christian, Wanted to provide you with the questions Senator Wicker is interested in asking Andrew Wheeler at tomorrow's EPW hearing. We'd appreciate if you share the below questions with Mr. Wheeler for his preparation. Question 1 What is the appropriate role for states in ensuring the integrity and health of our environment? What steps should the EPA take to better collaborate with state and local officials to achieve cooperative federalism ? Question 2 As you know Obama administration agencies have regularly asserted powers not granted to them by Congress. Two obvious examples are in the cases of the Waters of the United States (WOTUS) and the Clean Power Plan. What is your view as the role of Congress in fashioning environmental policy? Can you assure this committee that you will not reach beyond the authority granted to the EPA by Congress? Thank you, Sierra Club v. EPA 18cv3472 NDCA Tier 1 ED 002061 00152741-00001 Neal McMillin Senator Roger F. Wicker Sierra Club v. EPA 18cv3472 NDCA Tier 1 ED 002061 00152741-00002
