To: scheduling[scheduling@epa.gov]; Hupp, Sydney[hupp.sydney@epa.gov] From: Jennifer Butler Sent: Mon 3/27/2017 3:37:47 PM Subject: State Policy Network - Speaking request EPA Administrator Pruitt Speaker Request Form - SF docx Attached is the completed form requesting Secretary Pruitt to join our monthly State Energy / Environmental Policy Call. To expand the call to other key parties in the states, I can invite ALEC and RGA to participate. Our three organizations have been on a lot of policy related calls (healthcare and tax reform) together lately. Background on this call: We kicked off this call in December of 2015 with the goal of getting as many states as possible to submit requests to EPA for two-year state plan extensions, but after the SCOTUS stay the call transitioned into getting as many states to stop working on a plan. During session our weekly war room calls quickly became the go-to source for state action and info sharing. We not only have state and national think tank policy experts engaged, but also private industry and attorneys associated with state AG offices. We also deal with RPS mandates, carbon tax and messaging proactive free market solutions. The call is now on a monthly basis and would benefit greatly from receiving a first-hand update on changes we will see at the EPA, plus what support the agency needs during this transition. Look forward to discussing this request. Thank you for your consideration.
